Right. I did. Ironic, I know. What I meant is, is properly defining "interesting" enough to avoid a UFAI, or are there some other issues to watch out for?

Hmm. It seems like a very small group of new lifeforms could lead properly interesting lives even if the AI killed us all beforehand and turned Earth (at least) into computing power.

I also suspect that we'd not enjoy an AGI that aims only for threshold values for two of the three of sentient, lives, or diverse, strongly favoring the last one.
