OK -- like Eliezer, you are assuming an AIXItl variant in which the goal function is dependent on human behavior rather than being fixed up-front. That is fine. I was assuming the goal function was fixed forever, because it's only in this case that Hutter's mathematical theorems apply. However, the AIXItl algorithm itself is of course applicable even with a synergetically evolving goal function, as I also mentioned...
