Good story! However, I disagree with Yudkowsky in that we only get one shot at playing the game. Here in the mucky real world, we're going to have a lot of chances at playing this game. The interaction between us and the AI is going to keep on going for thousands (?) of years and in millions (?) of different games. Maybe it's because I've been reading a lot of philosophy recently. But I'm thinking that Yudkowsky is a bit too myopic here. Life and all it's sandy grit isn't even game-ifiable to me. There are no win/lose states. Yes, even death is variably considered a loss at many times in history. The entire idea of an 'end' here in the real world is not 'certain', or if that is even something to avoid.
