Utilitarian Artificial General Intelligence (UAGI)

The creation of an Utilitarian Artificial General Intelligence (UAGI), a kind of great automated global police that makes the best decisions under the criterion of maximizing happiness and minimizing suffering, and which will determine many aspects of the lives of almost all that we inhabit this planet and its nearby provinces, is closer and closer. I think this creation is inevitable. My personal goal is to influence it as much as possible, to ensure that no sentient beings are left out on moral consideration and that decisions are the best. This can be done, of course by working directly in its construction, or being in some more indirect way an adviser or influencer which determine its operation. The effect of this UAGI will be extraordinary, radical, exponentially superior to any known precedent, Studying and researching moral problems are, because of this, of extreme importance and urgency.
