That’s not the proper definition… Friendly AI, according to current guesses/theory, would be an extrapolation of human values. The extrapolation part is everything. I encourage you to check out that linked document, the system it defines (though just a rough sketch) is what is usually meant by “Friendly AI” around here. No one is arguing that “human values” = “what we absolutely must pursue”. I’m not sure that creating Friendly AI, a machine that helps us, should be considered as passing a moral judgment on mankind or the world. At least, it seems like a really informal way of looking at it, and probably unhelpful as it’s imbued with so much moral valence.
