Exactly.  AIs have to be taught.

So do humans.

If HUMANS (the gen-0 teachers) can't
come up with a way to TEACH -- in AI terms -- compassion, morality,
honesty,
love, creativity, respect, frustration, desire, etc. then how do you think
an AI is going to acquire those capabilities?

Same way humans do.

"compassion, morality, honesty, love, creativity, respect, frustration,
desire, etc."

Interesting that those are all abstract nouns and very emotional words.

That reminds me of a converstaion I had with a sofware engineer 40 years
ago.
It was about whether computers could ever become like us.
Him: Well you can't give it emotions.
Me: Why?
Him: [Silence for a few seconds then] Well you can't give it emotions.
Me: Never mind.
