Oh. My mistake. When you wrote, “Plus wishing for all people to be under the rule of a god-like totalitarian sounds to me like the best way to destroy humanity.”, I read:
[Totalitarian rule… ] … [is] … the best way to destroy humanity, (as in cause and effect.)
OR maybe you meant: wishing … [is] … the best way to destroy humanity
It just never occurred to me you meant, “a god-like totalitarian pretty much comes out where extinction does in my utility function”.
Are you willing to consider that totalitarian rule by a machine might be a whole new thing, and quite unlike totalitarian rule by people?
