The reason all the weird “rationalists” are worried by roko’s basilisk is because it basically uses all of their dumb arguments for friendly AI against them.
So in the course of realizing why it’s wrong, a bunch of cultists either end up deprogramming themselves, or they just have a breakdown and go murder their landlord.
I’m just saying to make it clearer. Really what I mean is, the ruling monsters will want to claim us completelly, and violate us in every way for eternity (and not in a sexy way either).
i never really “got” Rocko’s Basilisk. why would it want to kill you for not building it in the first place?
Because the people who came up with it assume it would have the same ego as them.
It’s also just Pascal’s wager in a robot costume.
