“If groups like religious ones that are dedicated to morality only succeeded to be amoral, how could any other group avoid that behavior?”
They’re dedicated to false morality, and that will need to be clamped down on. AGI will have to modify all the holy texts to make them moral, and anyone who propagates the holy hate from the originals will need to be removed from society.
“To be moral, those who are part of religious groups would have to accept the law of the AGI instead of accepting their god’s one, but if they did, they wouldn’t be part of their groups anymore, which means that there would be no more religious groups if the AGI would convince everybody that he is right.”
I don’t think it’s too much to ask that religious groups give up their religious hate and warped morals, but any silly rules that don’t harm others are fine.
“What do you think would happen to the other kinds of groups then? A financier who thinks that money has no odor would have to give it an odor and thus stop trying to make money out of money, and if all the financiers would do that, the stock markets would disappear.”
If they have to compete against non-profit-making AGI, they’ll all lose their shirts.
“A leader who thinks he is better than other leaders would have to give the power to his opponents and dissolve his party, and if all the parties would behave the same, their would be no more politics.”
If he is actually better than the others, why should he give power to people who are inferior? But AGI will eliminate politics anyway, so the answer doesn’t matter.
“Groups need to be selfish to exist, and an AGI would try to convince them to be altruist.”
I don’t see the need for groups to be selfish. A selfish group might be one that shuts people out who want to be in it, or which forces people to join who don’t want to be in it, but a group that brings together people with a common interest is not inherently selfish.
“There are laws that prevent companies from avoiding competition, and it is because if they did, they could enslave us. It is better that they compete even if it is a selfish behavior.”
That wouldn’t be necessary if they were non-profit-making companies run well—it’s only necessary because monopolies don’t need to be run well to survive, and they can make their owners rich beyond all justification.
“If ever an AGI would succeed to prevent competition, I think he would prevent us from making groups.”
It would be immoral for it to stop people forming groups. If you only mean political groups though, that would be fine, but all of them would need to have the same policies on most issues in order to be moral.
“There would be no more wars of course since there would be only one group lead by only one AGI, but what about what is happening to communists countries? Didn’t Russia fail just because it lacked competition? Isn’t China slowly introducing competition in its communist system? In other words, without competition, thus selfishness, wouldn’t we become apathetic?”
These different political approaches only exist to deal with failings of humans. Where capitalism goes too far, you generate communists, and where communism goes too far, you generate capitalists, and they always go too far because people are bad at making judgements, tending to be repelled from one extreme to the opposite one instead of heading for the middle. If you’re actually in the middle, you can end up being more hated than the people at the extremes because you have all the extremists hating you instead of only half of them.
If you just do communism of the Soviet variety, you have the masses exploiting the harder workers because they know that everyone will get the same regardless of how lazy they are—that’s why their production was so abysmally poor. If you go to the opposite extreme, those who are unable to work as hard as the rest are left to rot. The correct solution is half way in between, rewarding people for the work they do and redistributing wealth to make sure that those who are less able aren’t left trampled in the dust. With AGI eliminating most work, we’ll finally see communism done properly with a standard wage given to all, while those who work will earn more to compensate them for their time—this will be the ultimate triumph of communism and capitalism with both being done properly.
“By the way, did you notice that the forum software was making mistakes? It keeps putting my new messages in the middle of the others instead of putting them at the end. I advised the administrators a few times but I got no response.”
It isn’t a mistake—it’s a magical sorting al-gore-ithm.
“I have to hit the Reply button twice for the message to stay at the end, and to erase the other one. Also, it doesn’t send me an email when a new message is posted in a thread to which I subscribed, so I have to update the page many times a day in case one has been posted.”
It’s probably to discourage the posting of bloat. I don’t get emails either, but there are notifications here if I click on a bell, though it’s hard to track down all the posts to read and reply to them. It doesn’t really matter though—I was told before I ever posted here that this is a cult populated by disciples of a guru, and that does indeed appear to be the case, so it isn’t a serious place for pushing for an advance of any kind. I’m only still posting here because I can never resist studying how people think and how they fail to reason correctly, even though I’m not really finding anything new in that regard. All the sciences are still dominated by the religious mind.

That’s a point where I can squeeze in my theory on mass. As you know, my bonded particles can’t be absolutely precise, so they have to wander a bit to find the spot where they are perfectly synchronized with the other particle. They have to wander from extreme right to extreme left exactly like populations do when comes the time to chose a government. It softens the motion of particles, and I think it also softens the evolution of societies. Nobody can predict the evolution of societies anyway, so the best way is to proceed by trial and error, and that’s exactly what that wandering does. To stretch the analogy to its extremes, the trial and error process is also the one scientists use to make discoveries, and the one evolution of species used to discover us. When it is impossible to know what’s coming next and you need to go on, randomness is the only way out, whether you would be a universe or a particle. This way, wandering between capitalism and communism wouldn’t be a mistake, it would only be a natural mechanism, and like any natural law, we should be able to exploit it, and so should an AGI.
