Vicente Raja & Jeff Beck ~ Active Inference Insights 007 ~ The Markov Blanket Trick Debate

In 2021, Raja et al. published ‘The Markov Blanket Trick’, which argued that
“the FEP [Free Energy Principle] is not the general principle it is claimed to
be, and that active inference is not the all-encompassing process theory it is
purported to be either.” This led to a flurry of responses from within the
active inference community, with commentaries published by Friston, Ramstead
and Albarracin & Pitliya, amongst others. In this episode of Active Inference
Insights, we unpick this controversial paper with the help of its primary
author, Vicente Raja, and Jeff Beck, a computational neuroscientist studying
probabilistic reasoning in humans and animals. Vicente Raja
