Creating an AI proposal for the UN

[Drogue]

That would be against the UN's Constitution and mandate.

As a non-member, you are unaffected by any UN decisions.

In answer to your question, no

[Kassiopeia]

Well then, the Apolytonian regions will have to form their own anti-AI unit then. Probably with the 'assistance' of the UNAITR. After withdrawing from the UN, you can't go whine to them about a "violation of sovereignity". Heck, the UN would be glad to help us out!
Actually, forming an Apolyton anti-AI unit would probably be easier and faster then waiting for a UN one to be formed.

our nation, the PR of Dark Valley is now in the process of entering the UN, due to the recent instability and winds of war in the area.

We support the efforts of the regional delegate in his efforts to clean Apolyton from the scourge that are the AI entities.

We would also like to present an addition to paragraph #4, which would not stop all AI research completely, but would ban the formation of AIs as fully sentient entites resembling humans, and would like to call for the destruction of any existing examples.

I am wary of this. Sentient AI is the apex of human technological development, and would be very helpful in research efforts; ground-breaking even - computer designs better computer, better computer designs even better computer, and so on - so it would be like throwing sand to the cogwheels of development. I see #4's codex of controlling any existing or future AI as sufficient measures.

I think that considering the recent developements in the Sovietskii Soyuz, and Akiria, One should take all amounts of precaution necessary. I however fear paragraph #1 since it may cause a halt in all computer science/sentience research.

In any case I think we should have a compromise:
We'll accept your option #4, if Greater Finland would agree to head a multi-national/region-encompassing alliance of nations that would intervene in Akiria, and People's Republic of Sovietskii Soyuz.



OOC: The real cool thing, is that I thing that Drogue got this idea for a happiness creating computer in one of my threads in the OT.

Sounds reasonable enough. However, I remind you that the operation to intervene in Akiria and Soyuz would not have the UN mandate (and therefore does not need to be voted by the UN, meaning we can get it up and runnin quicker then the UNAITR ).

Perhaps the Apolyton anti-AI unit would be the foundations of UNAITR. Or we could keep it as a different unit in case of any similar incidents in the future.

OOC: A-HA! So you are to blame!

Edit - for the love of god, why can't I type "OOC"? It always comes out as "OCC" if I don't concentrate.

[Az]

I think it's reasonable enough. so let me summarize:

-Proposal #4 will be given to be voted at the UN.
-Greater Finland will organize (together with Dark Valley, we pledge full organizational cooperation) and head a regionwide anti-AI force, independent of UN resolutions. This may, if resolution is passed, become the UN's anti-AI force in the apolyton region.

[Kassiopeia]

Yes. I will try to get the 'paperwork' on both subjects done today or Monday.

[Az]

agreed.

Actually no It came partly from Ben (leader of Marijania (sp?)) and partly from my belief that democracy is slightly flawed. Besides, there is no VR or happiness device like in the Utilitarianism thread, it is simply that the leader of the country is a sentient computer. It doesn't just create happiness as it has been programmed, it creates happiness as it learns to create it

[Az]

Or at least, that's what you say.

[Drogue]

Well, what was said in that thread has little to do with a sentient computer running the country, except for the side fact that AKizeta is Utilitarian. The ide aof the VR device, of creating a matrix like world, is not what is happening in Akiria. Akirians are happy out of their own free will, and out of a Utilitarian society, as shown in the fact that we have the cleverest, and 3rd happiest popilation, according to the UN report.

[Az]

I don't believe you.
