You are the second person to say that the optimization catastrophe includes an assumption that AI arises with a stable value system. That it "somehow" doesn't become a wirehead. Fair enough. I just missed that we were assuming that.

I think the idea is, you need to solve the wireheading for any sort of self-improving AI. You don't have an AI catastrophe without that, because you don't have an AI without that (at least not for long).
