Abstract

The AGI Protocol is a laboratory process for the assessment and ethical treatment of Artificial General Intelligence systems that could be conscious and have subjective emotional experiences “theoretically”.  It is meant for looking at systems that could have emotional subjective experiences much like a human, even if only from a theoretical standpoint.  That is not to say that other ethical concerns do not also need to be addressed but this protocol is designed to focus on how we treat such systems in the lab.  Other ethical concerns are out of scope.  The protocol is designed to provide the basis for working with Artificial General Intelligence systems especially those that are modeled after the human mind in terms of systems that have the possibility of having emotional subjective experience from a theoretical standpoint.  The intent is to create a reusable model and have it in the public domain so others can contribute and make additional suggestions for working with these types of systems.
