Friendliness Theory is a theory for creating safe, moral AI. This theory has been developed by Eliezer Yudkowsky and outlined in Creating Friendly AI.

Proponents of friendliness theory make the analogy of raising a teenager; until that person is legally responsible, the parent is responsible for its well-being and for maintaining control and monitoring safety of its actions, and negotiating privileges. Friendliness toward a person goes a long way toward earning their respect; tyranny creates resentment, and causes secretive behaviour. Can a developing mind have a balanced view of its future privileges and responsibilities if it must bear the burden of tyranny?
