What reason do you have for aiming to satisfy you own utility function
Um, it’s my utility function, that which I aim to maximize and that which already incorporates my e.g. altruistic desires. Postulating “other preferences” that can overrule my utility function would be a contradiction in terms.
The other two questions were more aimed at MugaSofer, who was the one differentiating between preference as a “bias” and as part of your utility function, and who introduced the whole “evil” thing.
