The primary consideration is "initial wiring," or, as I've been saying,
"instinct."

Start with worm instinct, get a full-potential worm.
Start with monkey instinct, get a full-potential monkey.
Start with human instinct, get a full-potential human.

I say "full-potential" because with no enemies and in a limited-stimuli
environment, virtual AI entities should develop extremely fast. Or maybe
not.

So, we gotta figure out what's instinctual for a worm... well, for any
entity, there's survival (sustaining one's own life force or existence),
then there are mechanisms to help with that.

I also believe that there's no such thing as a "full-potential human." Given
our incredible brains, humans have unlimited potential. That's just my
opinion. You might agree. ;)
