Actually, another problem is that the AI is, with either title, neither male nor female, neither positional nor non-positional. These apply to the values of humans that it is trying to optimize for.
Even if you didn’t make that the title, you could have at least introduced the term, which is shorter than “mutually-satisfiable”, and then used it for the bulk of the article.
I changed the title—apart from distraction by gender issues, I think people are focusing on the “you can’t please all the people all the time” part, and missing the “most of the variance of possible values is present within human values” part. Any links made to this article before this comment will now be broken.
Would it be possible to change the title?
Edit: “Positional and Non-Positional Friendly AI” would be an improvement, for example. You would have to add the definitions to the text, naturally.
Would you be as likely to read something called “Positional and Non-Positional Friendly AI”?

It is a clanger, though.

Actually, the title in the URL doesn’t matter.
OK, that made me laugh.
