Ian C. is implying an AI design where the AI would look at it's programmers and determine what they *really* had wanted to program the AI to do - and would have if they were perfect programmers - and then do that.

But that very function would have to be programmed into the AI. My head, for one, spins in self-refential confusion over this idea.
