Homotopy Type Theory (2012) [pdf]
I get it that Homotopy type theory is an alternative to set theory that is based upon topology.
What&#x27;s less clear from their marketing is whether it&#x27;s just yet another formulation of something equivalent (set&#x2F;standard type theory&#x2F;category theory) Or if like any really interesting theory it does lead to different prediction or has properties which make it superior in some ways.
Until such marketing is addressed I won&#x27;t spend brain energy on learning it.<p>As an example, theorem provers are really an interesting topic, I heard that Homotopy type theory was used in some theorem provers but couldn&#x27;t find whether it leaded to any significant improvements.
As an AGI researcher, should I learn Hott?
