As Yudkoswky puts it, human intelligence, created by this "blind" evolutionary process, has only recently developed the ability for planning and forward thinking - deliberation. On the other hand, the rest and almost all our cognitive tools were the result of ancestral selection pressures, forming the roots of almost all our behavior. On the other hand,As such, when considering the design of complex systems where the designer - us - collaborates with the system being constructed, we are faced with a new signature and a different way to achieve AGI that's completely different than the process that gave birth to our brains.
