I would think that there are certain basic norms that, from a personal perspective, you would expect an AI to satisfy, like avoiding harm, non-discrimination and so on. But while there are some global norms that might be enforced, the question that we have to ask is who chooses these norms? Will they be selected by a group of engineers in comfortable office parks in the Bay Area, or by some institutional or participatory process? In principle you would have some form of AI version of the universal Declaration of Human Rights, right, but at the same time, who's going to decide that? I think if we can't answer that question, it will be a little bit challenging to discuss enforcement of global norms.
