Friendliness is not object-level output of AI, not individual decisions that it makes in certain contexts. Friendliness is a conceptual dynamics that is embodied by AI, underlying any specific decisions. And likewise Friendliness is derived not from individual actions of humans, but from underlying dynamics imperfectly implemented in humans, which in turn doesn't equate with implementation of humans, but is an aspect of this implementation which we can roughly refer to. -- Vladimir Nesov [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://causalityrelay.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=111637683-c8fa51 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
