I don't consider frogs to be objects of moral worth. -- Eliezer Yudkowsky

Yeah ok, frogs...but wait! This is the person who's going to design the moral seed of our coming god-emperor. I'm not sure if everyone here is aware of the range of consequences while using the same as corroboration of the correctness pursuing this route. That is, are we going to replace unfriendly AI with unknown EY? Are we yet at the point that we can tell EY is THE master who'll decide upon what's reasonable to say in public and what should be deleted?

Ask yourself if you really, seriously believe into the ideas posed on LW, enough to follow into the realms of radical oppression in the name of good and evil.

I am vaguely confused by your question and am going to stop having this discussion.

There are some good questions buried in there that may be worth discussing in more detail at some point.
