Chapter 10 of AI Ethics (ISBN 978-0262538190) catalogs various proposals
for design and development of ethical systems.<p>Many of these ideas, such as explainable systems, are beyond the reach
of any future systems in my opinion. Even people will "make up a rational
for things they have done" which has no basis in fact. Asking an AI system
to explain would essentially be asking it to hallucinate.<p>Given the growing idea of mixture-of-experts, it may be useful to have
the community focus on creating an "Ethical Expert" which is included
in every mixture-of-expert architecture.<p>Even the idea of trying to create such an Ethical Expert (an AI Superego?)
is a challenge. Perhaps this is the end goal of Anthropic or
Sutskever's Safe SuperIntelligence (https://ssi.inc/).
I'd love to be a fly-on-the-wall for THOSE discussions :-)<p>I spend a lot of time studying the ethics question. I'm curious how such
an AI SuperEgo would handle Sissela Bok's book on Lying (ISBN 978-0375705281).
Though her book is about Moral, not Ethical, choice it would still be an interesting
challenge for an AI SuperEgo.<p>(my working definitions:<p>Morals: The rules you choose to live by<p>Ethics: What you would do if the world knew you did it)
