I agree that AGI projects should take Friendliness as seriously as SIAI
does, and by that closing remark of mine didn't mean to encourage any
impatient dabbling.
Meant to present building a FAI/FRPOP (which in practice for most of us
should IMO mean supporting SIAI) as the best strategy to move towards
finding an answer to the somewhat cosmological question I mentioned in my
post. (Assuming certain problems are cracked early enough -- otherwise the
Collective Volition framework will probably have to be replaced by
somethink simpler in implementation, it seems to me.)
