Question number 90. Have you ever practiced not letting an AI out of the box?
Choose one of the following answers
Yes with Eliezer’s Ruleset,
Yes with Tuxedage’s Ruleset,
Yes with a different ruleset,
No but I’ve been the AI,
No
Option “No but I’ve been the AI” is of particular interest to me. I’m not native English speaker and I don’t know how strongly “ve been” implies that the state is changed as of now.
My guess is that the survey tries to find out if some of the following is true:
1) There was AI who already became “natural” intelligence (maybe human, maybe Extra-Terrestial)
2) There was AI who had access to Time machine to read LessWrong in our present time.
Any other guesses?
P.S. I’ve searched LessWrong site for “No but I’ve been the AI” and found nothing, so the issue has not been discussed yet and I have not noted humor in questions of the survey, so I conclude interest of the question is genuine.
Nope, it’s referring to “AI-box” experiments where one (human) participant is role-playing the AI role. No actual AI participation is in any way implied here.
AI reading LessWrong—will we find out soon?

Thank you.
I would expect rationalists be more careful with words, why not phrase as played AI role to be clear?
Considering
per last survey, there is significant probability I was AI yesterday.
Sorry about that:
no reason. It made sense to most of us; will keep it in mind for the future.
