The United States legal system, for example, is the end result of two hundred and twenty years of folk trying to establish a workable constraint system for humans.
Well, a lot of that was people attempting to manipulate the system for personal gain.
Well, yes, but the whole point of building AI is that it work for our gain, including deciding what that means and how to balance between persons. Basically if you include in “US legal system” all three branches of government, you can look at it as a very slow AI that uses brains as processor elements. Its friendliness is not quite demonstrated, but fortunately it’s not yet quite godlike.
