Yes, this is a possible end point of my line of reasoning: we either have to become luddites, or build a FAI that prevents us from uploading. These are both very repulsive conclusions for me. (Even if I don’t consider the fact that I am not confident enough in my judgement to justify such extreme solutions by it.) I, personally, would rather accept that much of my values will not survive.
He seems to be saying that, if his values lead to luddism he would rather give up on his values than embrace luddism. I think that this is not the correct use of the word `values’.
