   both ChatGPT and Claude AI applied this same term.   
      
   They did this on the basis that the halting problem   
   required a halt decider to report on behavior that   
   is different than the behavior that its actual input   
   actually specifies.   
      
   They were able to directly assess this behavior   
   themselves by actually performing a simulation of DD by   
   HHH according to the semantics of the x86 language.

   When the halting problem contradicts the definition   
   of a Turing machine decider   
      
   Turing machine deciders only compute a mapping from   
   their [finite string] inputs to an accept or reject   
   state on the basis that this [finite string] input   
   specifies or fails to specify a semantic or syntactic   
   property.

   My 28 year goal has been to make   
   "true on the basis of meaning" computable.   
      
   This required establishing a new foundation   
   for correct reasoning.
