I think my personal extrapolated volition is wireheading, and I’m definitely in the “Ooh science, what fun” camp.
But maybe I’m not very good at extrapolating, and an AI could come up with something better. It would, for instance, be great to be in a permanent state of bliss whilst actually acting in the world. Or in some private sandbox world occupied by myself and a few hundred friends.
I can’t see how those possibilities would feel any different to me from a good wireheading though. And maybe the AI is trying to conserve resources.
