It sounds correct when you approach it theoretically. And it might well be that this results in a good outcome, it doesn’t preclude it, at least if we talk about a random person that has psychopathy.
However, when I think about it practically, it feels wrong, like when I think about which world has the best chance to produce utopia, the one where AGI is achieved by Robert Miles, or by the North Korea. There are a few more nation states that are making large progress that I would want to name but won’t, to avoid political debate. These are the people I mostly was referring to, not random sociopaths working in AI field about whom I don’t know anything.
Which is why my personal outlook is such that I want as many people who are not like that to participate in the game, to dilute the current pool of lottery participants, who are, most of them, let’s be honest, not particularly virtuous individuals, but currently have very high chances of being the first to achieve this.
