Eliezer talked about human imitations quite a bit in Challenges to Christiano’s capability amplification proposal, specifically the safety implications of deviations from perfect imitation.
I’ve discussed (some difficulties of) imitating humans as a way to accelerate philosophical progress.
I also share shminux’s concern about humans (and hence human imitations) not being safe in extreme/unusual circumstances, and have discussed it under “human safety problems”.
ETA: However I think it’s definitely worth investigating further.
Thanks for all the links.
