martinkunev comments on Corrigibility, Much more detail than anyone wants to Read

This:

Might agent $b$ rewrite agent $a$‘s brain to make agent $a$ better satisfy agent $b$’s utility function? Most forms of wire-heading inherently limit the ability of agents to affect the future

and this

We have not proved that agent $b$ does not try to affect agent $a$‘s utility function (in fact, I expect in many cases agent $b$ does try to influence agent $a$’s utility function).

appear to be in conflict. Are you trying to say that depending on the circumstances b may try to influence a’s utility function or avoid doing so?
