Probability and Uncertainty

Open

The Gap

No way to express uncertainty, likelihood, confidence, or probabilistic reasoning.

Why It Matters

Cannot express: 'probably,' 'might,' 'likely,' 'about 70% chance.' Essential for AI reasoning under uncertainty.

Resolution

Define measure on glyph space. Replace crisp enclosures with measure-theoretic regions. Add confidence modifier.
