Comment on What would it take to make Gemini suitable to be president of the world?

  Conflicting things could be true at the same time in different places. Having one ruler doesn’t require one set of rules. There could be, and would need to be different rules for different communities.

  So its like what we already have today then, yes? What would prevent those different places from going to war with each other over their differences?

  An AI might be willing to do that, and slowly nudge over generations, differing communities toward a more globally compatible culture.

  You’re providing another great example except I don’t think you intend to. Your hypothetical example for the perfect ruler is one that works to unify the world into a single culture. Thats one definition of genocide. I don’t actually think you mean for that, but your definition can certainly match the word.

  Already you and I don’t agree on that path, because the ideas we have are mutually exclusive. We can’t have one part of the world that is working toward a single unifying culture while the other have embraces and celebrates the diversity of our many cultures. If one vision of the world is going to exist, one of those groups has to bend to the will of the other.

    My statement you quoted says nothing remotely like “unify the world into a single culture.” Read it again. “a more globally compatible culture.”

    There are many different yet compatible cultures, that are able to exist together in the world. It’s really only certain aspects of a few cultures which drive them to be intolerant of other cultures, that would need to be changed.

      “a more globally compatible culture.”

      My apologies. You used a singular there in your language. I took that to mean one.

      There are many different yet compatible cultures, that are able to exist together in the world. It’s really only certain aspects of a few cultures which drive them to be intolerant of other cultures, that would need to be changed.

      So a set of compatible cultures then. What about the ones that aren’t compatible? What happens with those?

        Those certain aspects which cause intolerance, would need to be changed. Nothing more.
