I don’t understand how you think these legal mechanisms would actually serve to bind superintelligent AIs. Or to put it another way, could chimpanzees or dolphins have established a legal mechanism that would have prevented human incursion into their habitat? If not, how is this hypothetical situation different?
Regarding the idea of trade — doesn’t this basically assume that humans will get a return on capital that is at least as good as the AIs’ return on capital? If not, wouldn’t the AIs eventually end up owning all the capital? And wouldn’t we expect superintelligent AIs to be better than humans at managing capital?
