When focusing on a issue such as friendliness of an FAI do you think that's in the domain of epistemology or ontology?
I feel like it's more epistemological, but then I tend to think everything is. Perhaps it is another symptom of my biases, but I think it more likely that trying to build an AI will help clarify questions about ontology vs. epistemology than that anything in our present knowledge of ontology vs. epistemology will help in devising strategies for building an AI.
If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post (even in Discussion), then it goes here.
