Does SoundLogic endorse their decision to let you out of the box? How do they feel about it in retrospect?

BTW, I think your pre-planning the conversation works as a great analogue to the superior intelligence a real AI might be dealing with.

I'm not completely sure. And I can't say much more than that without violating the rules. I would be more interested in how I feel in a week or so.

So, do you maintain your decision, or was it just a spur of the moment lapse of judgement?

After a fair bit of thought, I don't. I don't think one can really categorize it as purely spur of the moment though-it lasted quite a while. Perhaps inducing a 'let the AI out of the box phase' would be a more accurate description.

I really would like an answer to this question. I asked a similar one before on the last AI boxing thread. Does SoundLogic still believes he/she made the right choice? It would make sense to say that SoundLogic is permanently convinced that letting the AI out is the correct action and he should continue to believe so timelessly, but is he/she?
