Now, if human morality (what is right, and wrong) is a product of our
DNA, rather than being derived from raw logic, then any artificial
lifeform (or non-human biological one) is going to have a completely
different morality. I am interested in ways to manage this risk (if
indeed it is a risk) during the creation of an AI (i.e. how to make sure
it isn't "evil").
