Huh. I read the story more as an exploration on what the phrase "human life is sacred" really means. To me the whole AI thing was just a backdrop.

Fair enough, that's also an important aspect (perhaps more important ^.^). It's just that I immediately started thinking about what other phrases could've been said, and which might be the best one for a "properly aligned AI" (whatever that means).

I'd love an alternate version of the story where the phrase is indeed "human life is scared."
