A quick snapshot of what this page covers.
Risk profile
How this risk is described and categorized.
"Previous research has shown that utility maximizing agents are likely to fall victims to the same indulgences we frequently observe in people, such as addictions, pleasure drives (Majot and Yampolskiy 2014), self-delusions and wireheading (Yampolskiy 2014). In general, what we call mental illness in people, particularly sociopathy as demonstrated by lack of concern for others, is also likely to show up in artificial minds."
