Ahh, okay. I was about to try to write for Holden at least a sketch of a proof based on symmetry, that AIXI is benign.
In any case, if AIXI is benign, that constitutes an example of a benign system that can be used as an incredibly powerful tool, and is not too scary when made into an agent. Whenever we call something generally intelligent if it opts to drop anvil on it's head, that's matter of semantics.
