I would have a similar function, assuming that by "humanity" you mean beings with humane-ish values rather than just H. sapiens.
Yes - my function as stated becomes completely incoherent when applied to transhuman societies. If and when that becomes an issue I'll have a lot of hard thinking to do.
This is a brave thing to state, considering that transhumanism is such a big focus of this site. Transhumanists will be much less interested in your utility function if you don't even claim that it is future-proof. But personally, I sympathize, because I believe that this future-proofing is a very hard, maybe even impossible task. (See my comments at this thread.)
