“…Obeying those axioms is a requirement for any agent wishing to be Bayesian (where “being Bayesian” can be defined simply as the assignment of subjective degrees of belief in line with the probability calculus and the use of Bayes' rule for belief revision, see Pettigrew, 2016; but see also Kaye, 1988). Given that Bayesian inference arguably provides the standard of rationality for a broad range of inference problems as exemplified in the widespread use of Bayesian models of judgment (Kahneman & Tversky, 1973), reasoning (Oaksford & Chater, 2007), argumentation (Hahn, 2020), and other aspects of cognition (Chater, Oaksford, Hahn, & Heit, 2010; Chater & Oaksford, 2000; Griffiths, Kemp, & Tenenbaum, 2008), the fact that the aggregation of probabilities does not fall prey to the impossibility results just discussed is a major boost to rationality.…”
