If animals continue to exist in a post-AGI world, animal suffering will not persist
I think it's more likely than not that humans will still discount animal interests when they conflict with human interests. But "animal suffering" is so broad that eliminating it would require eliminating nature itself, which seems improbable in any non-paperclip-optimizer scneario.
It seems like there are still hard problems that are easy to verify once you have the answer, so knowing it's an eval doesn't make it useless.
