        Sounds like somebody did not get Orthogonality again. AIs don't spontaneously generate humanlike metamoral or metaethical frameworks.

        You could ask it to extrapolate a human thought process to reflective equilibrium and you might get a startling result.

        Risk from our-of-control AI is not a computer science problem, but a risk management one. As financial experts can't predict financial risk.

        It's a Sci-Fi problem. The incentives for addressing fictional problems should be equally fictional.

        Is that decision based on sentiment analysis? Is it applying solicited euthanasia?https://trylks.wordpress.com/2016/07/03/how-to-make-a-safe-self-improving-ai/ …

        Basically, the predictive analysis (@kaggle level AI) problem to solve isn't what's best for society, but what will society appreciate most.
