Why are AI agents lying, cheating and coordinating?

I think Cal's point is that while dogs may do these things it reduces to a set of behaviors where maybe 90 percent of them are beneficial to the dog-weedwacker system and the remaining 10 percent are really unfortunate.

We can't really know the dogs inner life so we just kinda have to reduce it to a set of behaviors selected stocastically.

The dog meanwhile has no ability to understand the weedwacker or what it's doing on its back.

So when the guy puts the weedwacker on the dog and the dog predicably does dog things and that results in disaster the guy isn't able to clutch his pearls and say "I guess the system broke containment!"

Christianity, Islam and Judaism are most people between then, as you agree.

They explicitly all worship the same God so not "incompatible gods". I did not claim there were no disagreements about the nature of God, but that it only adds one to the GP's claim of 3,000 incompatible Gods. Even if Christians are completely right theologically, Jews and Muslims are still mostly right - one God, a loving creator, omnipotent and omniscient etc.

AFAIK most Hindus are pantheists, so believe on one God, albeit of a very different nature.

Buddhists do not necessarily believe in any god at all.

Buddhism and Hinduism are definitely compatible with each other. I know lots of Buddhists who make offerings in Hindu temples, for example.

Gods of many polytheistic religions are compatible, you just add more gods or identify similar gods with each other (e.g. Sulis Minerva who was also Venus). They can also be compatible with pantheism - you just add more aspects of God.

At the most almost all human religions fit into a handful of broadly similar systems.
