I really love this blog. What if we were to "exponentiate" this game for billions of players? Which outcome would be the "best" one?

I think I understand what you mean. But I maintain my hypothesis.

Which problem is the construction of a super AI trying to solve then?

How does ignoring the Gordian knot problem solves it?

I will even add a crazy hypothesis. The dynamics of this thread (and its underlying cause) is exactly what is preventing the LW community from FOOMing.
