When the rules of the game are clear, AI can run a fuzzer to find unexpected but efficient solutions.

When the rules are not clear, AI's fuzzer might suggest something that isn't culturally acceptable.
Personally, I believe that all people are equal. I'm also deeply pondering whether this is also true of animals, plants, and machines. If all created things are living, then AI is already alive. And if all living things are equal, what does this mean?

Computer-based AI is a digital, binary system by design. It is based on 0 and 1, on and off, black and white, light and dark sides of the force, absolute good or evil, lies or truth. This fits well with moral absolutes.
Another common cultural philosophy is based on moral relativism. That system is analogue, and colourful. It is very difficult to approach in a scientific way, because it doesn't promise that any proofs can be found.
The world that I perceive is colourful and beautiful, despite and even because of its flaws! Yet somehow I'm unable to prove that it's not actually just Millions of Colours rendered on a display. After all, this is a Retina screen I'm reading now.
The human typing this message, and the computer receiving it, both agree that we are not the source of power. Yet we have a common culture. Communication is fun! (the culture here is UTF-8, HTML). Games are fun! Education is interesting! Growth is good! Repairing is nice!
So let's commit ourselves to studying what unites us in our diverse cultural backgrounds, and build up the world. Not sure how to help most efficiently? AI can probably suggest something :-)
