One of my primary motives for suggesting Wikipedia as the corpus for theHutter Prize for Lossless Compression of Human Knowledge<http://prize.hutter1.net/> was that Kolmogorov compression will have to involve modeling bias -- perhaps even imputing specific authors as being responsible for specific passages. Moreover, it will have to model the specific biases of those authors which will include modeling their psychology.
Unfortunately, a billionaire who said he was going to underwrite that prize mysteriously reneged and ceased all communication. It is still probably the best investment any philanthropist could make -- simply on the strength of motivating the advancement of artificial intelligence in the verbal realm.
