The Meta-Golden Rule says:

"Treat your inferiors as you would be treated by your superiors."

This saying, a variation of the well-known golden rule, was attributed to English statistician and computer scientist I. J. Good in a 1993 essay by Vernor Vinge.

Other sources attribute it to Seneca in the 1st century, in his moral epistle 47:11.
