Basically he is saying that AIs will not have goals in the same way that human beings do not have goals. No human being has a goal that he will pursue so rigidly that he would destroy the universe in order to achieve it, and AIs will behave similarly.

Arguably, humans don't do that shirt of thing because of goals towards self preservation, status and hedonism.

Richard Loosemore has stated a number of times that he does not expect an AI to have goals at all in a sense which is relevant to this discussion, so in that way there is indeed disagreement about whether AIs "pursue their goals."

The sense relevant to the discussion could be something specific, like direct normatively, ie building in detailed descriptions into goals.
