The AGI finite-determination conjecture for language-model entropy

Let S\mathcal{S} be the set of sentences, let L\mathscr{L} be a causal language model, and let

SL:SRS_{\mathscr{L}}:\mathcal{S}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}

be its entropy function. The AGI finite-determination conjecture. If a causal language model is an Artificial General Intelligence, then there exists a finite subset SAGIS\mathcal{S}_{\mathrm{AGI}}\subset\mathcal{S} such that SLS_{\mathscr{L}} on all of S\mathcal{S} is determined by its values on SAGI\mathcal{S}_{\mathrm{AGI}}. The motivation is the analogy with mathematics, where deductions from finitely many definitions and axioms determine further results; the paper gives no resolution of this conjecture.
