There's definitely a two fronts in the war for truth. Do you think objective truth exists? And if so, can we apprehend it was humans?
You'd need to set a premise and then you can work things out objectively according to it. The most obvious one is 'Promote wellbeing, avoid harm' but this still isn't really objective because the universe doesn't care if we torture each other to death.

Yes but that's unique to us. If you want to say 'human' rather than 'objective', I'm with you.

Yes, but it's humans who have this morality. Other conscious animals on this planet don't. It's quite possible that life elsewhere does not and that AIs would not. Therefore, not universal. Human.

There might be life somewhere with a fuller understanding of morality than us. Increase wellbeing and avoid suffering is very basic. If we get to a stage where we have achieved that, we might go further too.
