"If what you care about is rescuing toddlers from burning orphanages"
I aspire not to care about rescuing toddlers from burning orphanages. There seems to be good evidence they're not even conscious, self-reflective entities yet. I think this is mostly about using biases people are susceptible to to construct status heirarchies, Eliezer. In overcomingbias blog shouldn't we aim for transparency about this?
And their future potential doens't matter? Would you bother trying to revive an adult who was temporarily comatose?
