Hi Ben,
Many comments... like your article, I'll go ahead and presume a variety of "General" or "Advanced" AI -- mine differs in being less defined than yours (as always ;-), and rooted in the belief that an appropriate (self operational, etc) system based on a kind of heterarchical syntax tree (eg, distributed database, global brain) is the only thing that can yield GAI, and the rest (eg, morality) falls out of this.
My comments relate to "context", as in "context sensitive languages".
In terms of morality and friendliness and their origins, it is what we can call the Context of a natural life that it is, in an individual, a "life form" -- meaning it is fragile (subject to) and dependent on its environment including other life forms. It is this Context that first forms the basis of semantic meanings, and upon which higher order meaning(s) are typically based. (I would not hold up mathematics as a certain commonality, although generally the concept of abstraction being common is undoubtedly valuable, because I am certain in my belief that artificial mathematics would be completely different than ours).
Likewise for the artificial life it will have its own context, an an identical way, which implies that it will never comprehend most statements from natural life, and natural life will never comprehend most statements from such an artificial life.
Building GAI with more intensive methods requires Context. A point in the knowledge- awareness space can be a fuzzy intersection of multiple domains, ie, context.
