Ja, correct.  Running away is an example of doing nothing.  Running away is the time-honored approach to moral dilemmas, one I most often employ for myself.  It is part of the reason why I didn’t choose to go to medical school.  

 

Doing nothing is the most common response to the train-switch dilemma.  

 

One plausible scenario is that AI figures out how to de-age humans, then doesn’t.  It has no motive to de-age humans.
