This isn’t a Friendly Artificial General Intelligence 1) because it is not friendly; it does not act to maximize an expected utility based on human values, 2) because it’s not artificial; you’ve uploaded an approximate human brain and asked/forced it to evaluate stimuli, and 3) because, operationally, it does not possess any general intelligence; the Generator is not able to perform any tasks but write insightful strings.
Are you instead proposing an incremental review process of asking the AI to tell us its ideas?
You’re right, my entry doesn’t really fit the rules of this game. It’s more of a tangential brainstorm about how an FAI team can make use of a large amount of computation, in a relatively safe way, to make progress on FAI.
