"Universal Instrumental Values" is much the same idea as "Basic AI drives" dressed up a little differently

You are right. I hadn't made that connection. Now I have a little more respect for Omohundro's work.

As a side point, you could also re-read "Basic AI drives" as "Basic Replicator Drives" - it's systemic evolution.
