I'm trying to understand this, and I'm trying to do it by being a little more concrete.
Suppose I have a choice to make, and my moral intuition is throwing error codes. I have two axiomations of morality that are capable of examining the choice, but they give opposite answers. Does anything in this essay help? If not, is there a future essay planned that will?
In a universe that contains a neurotypical human and clippy, and they're staring at eachother, is there an asymmetry?
Probably this could (not) help
"And I quoted the above list because the feeling of rightness isn't about implementing a particular logical function; it contains no mention of logical functions at all; in the environment of evolutionary ancestry nobody has heard of axiomatization; these feelings are about life, consciousness, etcetera"
An asymmetry in what?
