Careful. Yudkowski and LW have a dark side. (google Roko's Basilisk)

Rationality applied to ethics is a sticky wicket. You have to subscribe to some metric of "good" in order to weigh and compare outcomes. EY's definition of good is ruthlessly utilitarian, and that has some extreme, nay dire consequences for certain thought experiments.

Consume this philosophy at your own risk.
