In the first paragraph of "Finding the Optimal First Guess", it says: "a distribution P(g), to maximize the conditional mutual information between the guesses G and targets T given patterns P:", but the expression following this sentence, it is showing I(T : P | G), i.e., the mutual information between the patterns P and the targets T given the guess G, which seems more correct. The text should be amended.
