L1:{<M> | there exist a Turing machine M' such that <M>$\neq$<M'> and L(M) = L(M')} How this problem becomes trivial? and if it non-trivial then please explain why is that so. According to my understanding, non-trivial ... is then is it okay to say M1=M2 because they are kind of same machine but other one is just with some non deterministic nature.
