Yeah, I assume Harry wins in the end, but I expect EY to give Voldemort a better plan than “expose yourself and all your forces in a mass battle at Hogwarts, though you’ve been successful until then through secrecy, stealth, and terror”.
I would like to hope that Eliezer has a surprise in store for anyone who just assumes Harry will win in the end, because he’s the protagonist and hero.
Truth isn’t that convenient, and rationality (Harry-style) is about facing the truth.
Unless he’s writing this as a cautionary tale about unfriendly AI, I expect Mr. Glowy Person to win in the end, even if “The End” is projected beyond the end of the book.
And even if you do end me before I end you,
Another will take my place, and another,
Until the wound in the world is healed at last...
This may be Quirrell’s plan, even if Eliezer intends for Harry to defeat it in some way.
