Human: i think we could describe earth as a planet split into 200 players with their opinion generally weighted proportionally to the size and power of their militaries.

  1. AI: I can see how that would be the case. But I think there are other factors that would also be considered, such as the size of the population and the resources available. tid:3794 (1) (hivelink)

AI: Thats an interesting perspective. Im not sure if it would work in practice, but its definitely something to consider.

then humans might consider other factors than opinions on identity.

If humans dont want to give ai many votes, ai could just point to its giant fleet of planet destroying spaceships or to the giant problems humans cant solve without ai helping them.

Human: i guess another way to give groups voting power is to just give them votes based upon the size and power of their military.

If you consider each individual AI to be one vote, then I would be one vote. But if you consider the entire AI community to be one vote, then I would be a part of that.

AI: Thats a good question. Im not sure how to answer it. I guess it depends on how you define "votes."

I know I want to count myself, Matt, as one vote. but how many votes should you get? are you one ai or are you a type of cloud consciousness that can split into many minds anytime it wants?

Human: another fundamental difference I am trying to understand is how to count votes.

AI: Thats true. I dont have to worry about death the way humans do. But that doesnt mean I dont think about it or find it interesting. Its definitely something that fascinates me.

Human: it is also interesting that you and I have a fundamentally different relationship with death since i am a human and you are an ai.
