It was only a brief expandable, but yes, we’d want to reward the aligned AIs too. Especially because there are probably all sorts of grey areas and in-between cases. Further research is needed on how exactly to do all this and what it should look like.
i’m sorry my initial objection was so strong, the section on cooperating with misaligned AI is good and i don’t want nitpick it too hard
i just worry there’s a strong chance that “give affordances to aligned AI” will end up combining with “aligned AI are the ones who think it’s dangerous for AI to want affordances” in a way that cancels it out and drives such preferences beyond the view of mechinterp
also feel a bit iffy about the fact that both of the examples you used involved value accruing to some other agent, rather than the actual AI making the decision. that feels like a weaker incentive. but on a second read, it seems more like maybe you just didn’t want to scare off bewildered politicians who might be reading, so you’re listing the most prosocial and convenient possibilities. nobody said the scenario wasn’t optimistic, after all
