But since there is an exponentially huge set of random maximisers, the probability of each individual one is infinitesimal. OTOH, human values have a high probability density in mindspace because people are actually working towards it.
Depends on how high probability density have humans (and alien life forms so similar to humans that they share our values) in mindspace. Maybe very low. Maybe a society ruled by intelligent ants according to their values would make us very unhappy... and on a cosmic scale, ants are our cousins; alien life should be much more different.
