The [7g0 nonadversarial principle] still applies, but takes the form of "[7fx don't run the search]" rather than "make sure the search returns the correct answer".\n\n# Obstacles\n\n• Increasing your material and cognitive efficacy is [10g instrumentally convergent] in all sorts of places and would presumably need to be [2vk averted] all over the place.\n\n• Good limitation proposals are [deceptive_ease not as easy as they look] because [7vh particular domain capabilities can often be derived from more general architectures]. An Artificial *General* Intelligence doesn't have a handcrafted 'thinking about cars' module and a handcrafted 'thinking about planes' module, so you [7vk can't just handcraft the two modules at different levels of ability].\n\nE.g. many have suggested that 'drive' or 'emotion' is something that can be selectively removed from AGIs to 'limit' their ambitions; [43h presumably] these people are using a mental model that is not the standard [18r expected utility agent] model. To know which kind of limitations are easy, you need a sufficiently good background picture of the AGI's subprocesses that you understand which kind of system capabilities will naturally carve at the joints.\n\n# Related ideas\n\nThe research avenue of [2r8 Mild optimization] can be viewed as pursuing a kind of very general Limitation.\n\n[102 Behaviorism] asks to Limit the AGI's ability to model other minds in non-whitelisted detail.\n\n[4mn Taskishness] can be seen as an Alignment/Limitation hybrid in the sense that it asks for the AI to only *want* or *try* to do a bounded amount at every level of internal organization.\n\n[2pf] can be seen as an Alignment/Limitation hybrid in the sense that a [4l successful impact penalty] would make the AI not *want* to implement larger-scale plans.\n\nLimitation may be viewed as yet another subproblem of the [3ps], since it seems like a type of precaution that a generic agent would desire to construct into a generic imperfectly-aligned subagent.\n\nLimitation can be seen as motivated by both the [7g0] and the [7tf].', metaText: '', isTextLoaded: 'true', isSubscribedToDiscussion: 'false', isSubscribedToUser: 'false', isSubscribedAsMaintainer: 'false', discussionSubscriberCount: '1', maintainerCount: '1', userSubscriberCount: '0', lastVisit: '', hasDraft: 'false', votes: [], voteSummary: 'null', muVoteSummary: '0', voteScaling: '0', currentUserVote: '-2', voteCount: '0', lockedVoteType: '', maxEditEver: '0', redLinkCount: '0', lockedBy: '', lockedUntil: '', nextPageId: '', prevPageId: '', usedAsMastery: 'false', proposalEditNum: '0', permissions: { edit: { has: 'false', reason: 'You don't have domain permission to edit this page' }, proposeEdit: { has: 'true', reason: '' }, delete: { has: 'false', reason: 'You don't have domain permission to delete this page' }, comment: { has: 'false', reason: 'You can't comment in this domain because you are not a member' }, proposeComment: { has: 'true', reason: '' } }, summaries: {}, creatorIds: [ 'EliezerYudkowsky' ], childIds: [], parentIds: [ 'task_agi' ], commentIds: [], questionIds: [], tagIds: [ 'c_class_meta_tag' ], relatedIds: [], markIds: [], explanations: [], learnMore: [], requirements: [], subjects: [], lenses: [], lensParentId: '', pathPages: [], learnMoreTaughtMap: {}, learnMoreCoveredMap: {}, learnMoreRequiredMap: {}, editHistory: {}, domainSubmissions: {}, answers: [], answerCount: '0', commentCount: '0', newCommentCount: '0', linkedMarkCount: '0', changeLogs: [ { likeableId: '0', likeableType: 'changeLog', myLikeValue: '0', likeCount: '0', dislikeCount: '0', likeScore: '0', individualLikes: [], id: '22165', pageId: 'limited_agi', userId: 'EliezerYudkowsky', edit: '2', type: 'newEdit', createdAt: '2017-02-22 01:12:59', auxPageId: '', oldSettingsValue: '', newSettingsValue: '' }, { likeableId: '0', likeableType: 'changeLog', myLikeValue: '0', likeCount: '0', dislikeCount: '0', likeScore: '0', individualLikes: [], id: '16528', pageId: 'limited_agi', userId: 'EliezerYudkowsky', edit: '0', type: 'newParent', createdAt: '2016-07-10 22:40:46', auxPageId: 'task_agi', oldSettingsValue: '', newSettingsValue: '' }, { likeableId: '0', likeableType: 'changeLog', myLikeValue: '0', likeCount: '0', dislikeCount: '0', likeScore: '0', individualLikes: [], id: '16529', pageId: 'limited_agi', userId: 'EliezerYudkowsky', edit: '0', type: 'newTag', createdAt: '2016-07-10 22:40:46', auxPageId: 'c_class_meta_tag', oldSettingsValue: '', newSettingsValue: '' }, { likeableId: '0', likeableType: 'changeLog', myLikeValue: '0', likeCount: '0', dislikeCount: '0', likeScore: '0', individualLikes: [], id: '16526', pageId: 'limited_agi', userId: 'EliezerYudkowsky', edit: '1', type: 'newEdit', createdAt: '2016-07-10 22:40:45', auxPageId: '', oldSettingsValue: '', newSettingsValue: '' } ], feedSubmissions: [], searchStrings: {}, hasChildren: 'false', hasParents: 'true', redAliases: {}, improvementTagIds: [], nonMetaTagIds: [], todos: [], slowDownMap: 'null', speedUpMap: 'null', arcPageIds: 'null', contentRequests: {} }
