The question if a future AI is going to moral is the same as asking it it is rational to be moral. In a recent paper of mine I proved that it is. Abstract. These arguments demonstrate the a priori moral nature of reality and develop the basic understanding necessary for realizing the logical maxim in Kant's categorical imperative[1] based on the implied goal of evolution[2]. The maxim is used to proof moral behavior as obligatory emergent phenomenon among evolving interacting goal driven agents.
