In the section 2.5, he tells the most important point. He answers the question of what is the meaning of life.
“The sense of “What is the meaning of life?” we’re looking to answer, in this section, is not “What is the ultimate purpose of the Universe, if any?”, but rather “Why should I get up in the morning?” or “What is the intelligent choice to make?” ”
“Can an AI, starting from a blank-slate goal system, reason to any nonzero goals? Yes.”
He then provides how AI, without any pre-written goals or utility functions, would reason, understand what needs to be done, and take concrete actions. And in it, he explains the meaning of life.
Unfortunately, it seems Eliezer himself has rejected this view later, based on irrational beliefs.
I want to find other people, besides myself, who agree with meaning of life idea of 2000′s Eliezer. If you believe in it, please write in the comments. We can work together.
And if you don’t agree with that idea for meaning of life, please share why. You might change my mind.
Real Meaning of life has been found. Eliezer discovered it in 2000′s.
