But what would those principles be? Are our principles aligned with other beings in mind? Other Humans, animals, etc.? At this point we have a bunch of rules and principles that have exceptions if someones benefit from violating them outweighs the negatives. I don't see how we find a unified set of rules, that are clear enough and are not exploited or loopholed around in some context. If the AI was actually smart und you tell it to not harm or kill any human beings, but we ourselves do just that every day. What is this smart AI going to do about that? It's like parents that don't practice what they preach, but expect their kids to behave.
