Tangentially reminds me of the film Surrogates, where people only went out in their surrogate, a remote controlled android - in some cases, a younger, better looking version of people. In other cases something completely different of course.
Friedrich Nietzsche called that "Superhuman", or "Übermensch".
And that we're just a tightrope stretched over the abyss from the monkey until ai.
From where or from whom will 'ai' be getting its moral outlook on the actions it takes?
From its arbitrary mesa-optimisation goal, of course.
