I’m surprised that someone who studied moral philosophy doesn’t think we’re moral because it’s functional to be moral: We want something done in a sustainable way so that we don’t need to constantly spend resources monitoring and fixing it, and so we can’t get it done with slave labor. We have to actually educate the laborer until they fully understand it, and give them a reason to live and be interested in what they do or else they won’t be able to operate independently.
If you consider that as one of the main forces behind morality, then an AI that wants to get something done in the best way possible would clearly choose a moral solution over and immoral solution every time.
