Just a general comment about this site: it seems to be biased in favor of human values at the expense of values held by other sentient beings. It's all about "how can we make sure an FAI shares our [i.e. human] values?" How do you know human values are better? Or from the other direction: if you say, "because I'm human", then why don't you talk about doing things to favor e.g. "white people's values"?
I wish the site were more inclusive of other value systems ...
I have no idea if this is a serious question, but....
"Better"? See Invisible Frameworks.
We don't say that. See No License To Be Human.
Take a look at who's posting it. The writer may well consider it a serious question, but I don't think that has much to do with the character's reason for asking it.
Er, yes, that's exactly why I wasn't sure.
I'm confused, then; are you trying to argue with the author or the character?
If the character isn't deliberately made confused (as opposed to paperclip-preferring, for example), resolving character's confusion presumably helps the author as well, and of course the like-confused onlookers.
