If the AI is not allowed to do anything which would increase the total monetary wealth of the world … that would create staggering levels of conflicts and inconsistencies with any code that demanded that it help people. If you help someone, then you place them in a better position than they were in before, which is quite likely to mean that they will produce more wealth in the world than they would before.
I still agree. I allow the inconvenient world to stand because the ability to supply cash for a hit wasn’t central to my point and there are plenty of limitations that badger could have in place that make the mentioned $1,000,000 transaction non-trivial.
I agree, although I allow somewhat for an inconvenient possible world.
