On: Microsoft lays off one of its responsible AI teams

Your original comment didn't talk about ethics or morals, but was talking about intelligence being its own great filter. More intelligent AI consuming us could be unethical and immoral in your view, but it would still be intelligence spreading, and not filtering itself. Just not specifically human intelligence.

It's quite possible the eventual AI ends up unintelligent (self-optimizes into grey goo or something).

>could be unethical and immoral in your view

Hmph.

I mean, killing all the people on the planet seems unethical to me. Maybe I have a deep misunderstanding of ethics.

But you weren't talking about the ethical ramifications. You made a claim about a great filter, and that claim doesn't hold up.

If I say that using humans as batteries in the matrix doesn't make sense, that's not tacit approval of the rest of the scenario.
