@lugaricano My point is that your "simply unify the Incan empire" counterfactual is vacuous unless you demonstrate that this was a course of action anyone could have feasibly coordinated, given that everyone was acting in their own self-interest.

Humans don't actually have internal coherent world models. You might not be able to say where lots of specific keys on a QWERTY keyboard are if asked, but if you put your hands down on the table and mime typing words you can figure out where each individual letter is easily. This is evidence that humans are just doing complex pattern recognition that doesn't transfer to other domains and we should stop anthropomorphizing them.

Thinking quickly, Lenin constructs the 4th most powerful country in the world using only some string (sold by capitalists), a squirrel, and the 4th most powerful country in the world.

Orson Welles portrays the Shakespearean character Falstaff and delivers a flawless Sherry-sack monologue in The Dean Martin Show.

@herbiebradley but this only works insofar as the probes are financed by terrestrial capital markets, which is true for at least the beginning

@herbiebradley i do think this means sending humans into space, since their wealth (and thus incentives) are tied up on earth

in general it doesn't make sense to think of AI as a fixed machine that "has" a utility function. their incentives emerge from the reproductive environment
