corrigibility-less-anti-natural
leaf/step · drafted
Statement
Each published argument that corrigibility is anti-natural rests on at least one assumption that fails for an agent whose utility on the algebra containing the overseers' corrections depends on those corrections.
Source
The author's thesis as published in projects/deference/corrigibility-note-dump-2026-10-01/corrigibility-discussion-outline.md, section "the author's thesis": the arguments for anti-naturality have hidden or under-scrutinized assumptions. The utility-depends-on-corrections form is the value-change note's reframing, projects/deference/corrigibility-note-dump-2026-10-01/value-change-as-epistemic-update.md, section 4.1.
Notes
The thesis of the corrigibility line. It conditions on the conjunction of the arguments as stated: where that conjunction fails, the thesis is close to established; where some argument holds as stated, the thesis fails at that argument.
