📖 Description

This sequence already contains a couple of blog posts, exploring different aspects of goal-directedness. But one question has never been fully addressed: what constraints should a good formalization of goal-directedness satisfy? An answer is useful both for people like me which study this topic, and for people trying to assess the value of this research. The following is my personal view, as always informed with discussion with Michele Campolo, Joe Collman and Sabrina Tang.
