My understanding of CV is that it's a decision making mechanism that will
guide actions of the first self-improving capable AI. That first AI with CV
at its core is meant to do one thing only, namely, to produce a Friendly AI.
Whatever the entity CV-driven AI creates, *that* entity will actually be
altering reality in, hopefully, optimally Friendly ways. Once this maximally
Friendly entity exists, CV-driven AI will become obsolete. HTH.
