Ah yes, I'll just reference the list of my non-neutral biases as I choose the moderation rules for my AI. My bias against swear words is neutral, so I will include that rule, but my bias against pollution is not neutral, so I will skip those moderation rules.
Obviously categorizing beliefs into "neutral" and "not neutral" is impossible. Your statement is a classic example of the false consensus effect -- everyone thinks they are neutral.

- haberman 4y ago> Obviously categorizing beliefs into "neutral" and "not neutral" is impossible. There is one distinction that matters a lot, and that is empirical vs. moral. Also known as vs. ought (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Is%E2%80%93ought_problem https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Is%E2%80%93ought_problem). When exploring empirical claims, one can aspire for neutrality. Even if perfect neutrality is not possible, it's certainly possible to do better or worse at it. Moral claims cannot really be evaluated neutrally, I agree. But an AI striving for neutrality could attempt to avoid taking sides on contentious issues.
