Thank you! However, colonialism also has a moral aspect: I conjectured that any system of minds eventually converges to respecting the weaker ones or disrespecting them. If humanity creates an AI that treats mankind as if the AI was an evil explorer and mankind was an alien race that the AI met, then the AI would obviously be misaligned. And if the AI treats mankind as if the AI was a good explorer or a progressor?
Robin Hanson’s model of quiet vs loud aliens seems fundamentally the same as this question, to me.
Aliens can be grabby but good—the expand fats and take as much space as possible, but also do not destroy young civilizations
Yes, that’s my position!
In that case zoo hypothesis is true. I am working on a map of fermi paradox solutions, do you want to have a look?
