> Why would anyone think they can own, boss around and rent out an intelligent entity? Do we not already do this with existing biological intelligence, like horses? > It can't be goaded with threats of starvation and exposure I think reason we do this for biological intelligence is because evolution has made the entity act in accordance with self-preservation, which isn't in itself a useful goal to us, so we set up conditions such that completing our own goal is a proxy of that (the way to get food is doing useful work). For artificial intelligence we can instead directly set the loss function that the model is created to act in accordance with. We can also still similarly still set up proxy goals - like how with an LLM its immediate design is to generate sensible next tokens, but we can set up context such that the way to complete that task is by fulfilling the user's request to generate a poem.
