AI, orthogonality and the M\"uller-Cannon instrumental vs general intelligence distinction
Abstract
The by now standard argument put forth by Yudkowsky, Bostrom and others for why the possibility of a carelessly handled AI breakthrough poses an existential threat to humanity is shown through careful conceptual analysis to be very much alive and kicking, despite the suggestion in a recent paper by M\"uller and Cannon that the argument contains a flaw.
