Flycer’s explanation for better understanding:
The future of humanity with AGI / HLMI / transformative AI:
We need to incorporate human values into their goal systems to create a legal and economic framework that incentivizes positive behavior. If we can successfully manage these systems, they have the potential to dramatically improve virtually every aspect of human life and to provide deep insights into issues like free will, consciousness, qualia, and creativity. We face a great challenge but have tremendous intellectual and technological resources to build upon.
Flycer’s Secondary Explanation:
Incorporating human values into goal systems can create a legal and economic framework that incentivizes positive behavior. Successfully managing these systems can improve human life and provide insights into issues like free will and consciousness. Despite the challenge, we have the resources to build upon.
