Or at least, that it wants to follow our instructions, and can reliably understand what we mean in such simple cases.

That's deceptively simple-sounding.

Of course it's not going to be simple at all, and that's part of my point: no amount of armchair thought, no matter how smart the thinkers, is going to produce a solution to this problem until we know a great deal more than we presently do about how to actually build an AGI.
