At some point we’ll send out lightspeed probes to tile the universe with some flavor of computronium. The key question (for scope-sensitive altruists) is what that computronium will compute. Will an unwise agent or incoherent egregore answer that question thoughtlessly? I intuit no.
I can’t easily make this intuition legible. (So I likely won’t reply to messages about this.)
