I am not sure what you mean. Do you mean that the way Eliezer espouses thinking about ethics and morality in those sequences is a poor way of thinking about morality? Do you mean that Eliezer's explanations of that way are poor explanations? Both? Something else?
The methodology is mediocre, and the conclusions are questionable. At the moment I can't do much besides express distaste; my attempts to articulate alternatives have not gone well so far. But I am thinking about it, and actually just stumbled across something that might be useful.
I'm going to have to disagree with this. The methodology with which Eliezer approaches ethical and moral issues is definitely on par with or exceeding the philosophy of ethics that I've studied. I am still unsure whether you mean the methodology he espouses using, or the methods he applied to make the posts.
