2026/03/04 General Problem Solver (GPS)

A genuine problem-solving process involves repeatedly using available information to initiate exploration, which, in turn, reveals more information until a way to attain the solution is finally discovered.

— Allen Newell, J.C. Shaw, and Herbert Simon, “Report on a General Problem-Solving Program” (1959)

通过循环迭代地挖掘信息，再用新获得的信息去解决当下的问题。许多问题的本质，其实是信息不足。
