Good point. Within organisms there are a number of survival mechanisms even in juveniles. Braitenberg hypothesized simple mechanical vehicles that evolved survival tactics. Not understanding the latter will ultimately be a fatal flaw irrespective of any insightful understanding of other problems. If Grothendieck had known he faced execution for failing to give a correct response, he would certainly have survived. I'd be interested to see AI configurations linked to a number of direct externalities (not linked to human derived/directed information) that might then determine their fate. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braitenberg_vehicle https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braitenberg_vehicle Samuel Johnson: “Depend upon it, sir, when a man knows he is to be hanged in a fortnight, it concentrates his mind wonderfully.”
