One career path I'm sort of musing about is working to create military robots. After all, the goals in designing a military robot are similar to those in designing Friendly AI: the robot must know somehow who it's okay to harm and what "harm" is.
Does this seem like a good sort of career path for someone interested in Friendly AI?
The difference between specialized FAI and general FAI is like the difference between adaptation executors and fitness maximizers. It's a big difference.
Is specialized FAI even a meaningful term? ISTM that to implement actual friendliness even in a specialized application an AI needs capabilities that imply AGI.
It's a nonstandard term that seemed appropriate to the discussion. By specialized FAI, I mean an AI that reliably does the thing it was made to do in a specific context.
Isn't that the same as specialized AI? I don't think anybody deliberately makes specialized AIs that don't work.
