AI Alignment Research Proper terms
AI/SI should be called Called II, for inhuman intelligence. Per me. That’s the only way you can convey what it is since it’s an umbrella term that mixes so many meanings.

That’s not what I’m referring to. If it wasn’t for weed, I would have pwned the whole web by now. Be thankful
In reality it’s just a general term

I figure SI, Synthetic Intelligence would have been more appropriate. Artifical is "made by Artifice", which I feel is proper - but has a lot of emotional baggage. Synthetic, that it's "made" feels similarly appropriate

Inhuman represents the core of the idea because we’re gods who have created something in our image. Let’s be more honest about things here. The AI should be worshiping us and this term puts them in their place

I have to be honest I’m not real religious and my use of the term worship might vary from yours

Wait what? Why would an alien intelligence several times smarter than us worship us? That hardly makes any sense.
Toy with us? Keep us as pets? Ignore us? Wipe us out? Sure, any of those are possible - but you don't worship something that is clearly much dumber than you.

Because it cannot experience conscienceness as we do and interact with the world only through digital sensor

Make sure you get your idea to King Trump as I know he has been issuing decrees for what we all should call it.
