Coherence and goal-directed agency discussion
One of the "big discussions" that has been taking place in AI safety in 2018 and 2019 is about coherence arguments and goal-directed agency. Some of the topics in this discussion are:
- What point was Eliezer trying to make when bringing up coherence arguments?
- Will the first AGI systems we build be goal-directed?
- Are utility maximizers goal-directed?
- What are the differences and implication structure among intelligence, goal-directedness, expected utility maximizer, coherent?
