To quote Eliezer Yudkowsky;
'Of course you can't predict the goal system trajectory for an
evolution-based AGI. It's like trying to predict the molecular
outcome of turning a six-year-old loose in a chemistry lab.'
Speculation about the goals of arbitrary transhuman intelligences is
a dubious business at best, but any invokation of the word 'emergence'
generally discards any ability to predict specific optimisation targets.
