Corrigibility

"If we get something wrong in the design or construction of an agent, will the agent cooperate in us trying to fix it? This is called error-tolerant design by MIRI-AF and corrigibility by Soares, Fallenstein, et al. (2015). The problem is connected to safe interruptibility as considered by DeepMind."
