AI alignment to humans will in practice avoid moral catastrophes to animals
I don’t see much tradeoff between human and animal welfare in a future with advanced AI/superintelligence. Its likely that it will be good for animal welfare e.g animal farming will dissappear, as we will have better foods and it would be pointless. If we are talking about wild animal population reduction, that’s a possibility, but I don’t see it as immoral, except maybe for certain species like great apes?, but their population is already low and likely not a problem. This is related to “paretotopia” too.
