Species relativity of priors

  1. It would be irrational for us to assign a very high prior probability to the thesis that spiky teal fruit is a healthy food.

  2. If a species evolved to naturally assign a very high prior probability to the thesis that spiky teal fruit is a healthy food, it would not be irrational for them to do this.

  3. So, what prior probabilities are rational is species relative.
