Hi, Eli! I'm not sure I can answer directly - here's my closest shot:
If there's a kind of universal moral attractor, then the chances seem pretty good that either our civilisation is on route for it - or else we will be obliterated or assimilated by aliens or other agents as they home in on it.
If it's us who are on route for it, then we (or at least our descendants) will probably be sympathetic to the ideas it represents - since they will be evolved from our own moral systems.
If we get obliterated at the hands of some other agents, then there may not necessarily be much of a link between our values and the ones represented by the universal moral attractor.
Our values might be seen as OK by the rest of the universe - and we fail for other reasons.
Or our morals might not be favoured by the universe - we could be a kind of early negative moral mutation - in which case we would fail because our moral values would prevent us from being successful.
Maybe it turns out that nearly all biological organisms except us prefer to be orgasmium - to bliss out on pure positive reinforcement, as much of it as possible, caretaken by external AIs, until the end. Let this be a fact in some inconvenient possible world. Why does this fact say anything about morality in that inconvenient possible world? Why is it a universal moral attractor? Why not just call it a sad but true attractor in the evolutionary psychology of most aliens?
As promised, here is the "Q" part of the Less Wrong Video Q&A with Eliezer Yudkowsky.
The Rules
1) One question per comment (to allow voting to carry more information about people's preferences).
2) Try to be as clear and concise as possible. If your question can't be condensed to a few paragraphs, you should probably ask in a separate post. Make sure you have an actual question somewhere in there (you can bold it to make it easier to scan).
3) Eliezer hasn't been subpoenaed. He will simply ignore the questions he doesn't want to answer, even if they somehow received 3^^^3 votes.
4) If you reference certain things that are online in your question, provide a link.
5) This thread will be open to questions and votes for at least 7 days. After that, it is up to Eliezer to decide when the best time to film his answers will be. [Update: Today, November 18, marks the 7th day since this thread was posted. If you haven't already done so, now would be a good time to review the questions and vote for your favorites.]
Suggestions
Don't limit yourself to things that have been mentioned on OB/LW. I expect that this will be the majority of questions, but you shouldn't feel limited to these topics. I've always found that a wide variety of topics makes a Q&A more interesting. If you're uncertain, ask anyway and let the voting sort out the wheat from the chaff.
It's okay to attempt humor (but good luck, it's a tough crowd).
If a discussion breaks out about a question (f.ex. to ask for clarifications) and the original poster decides to modify the question, the top level comment should be updated with the modified question (make it easy to find your question, don't have the latest version buried in a long thread).
Update: Eliezer's video answers to 30 questions from this thread can be found here.
