Roko's Basilisk (opens in new tab)

It really makes you think, what if we are in a simulation and Roko is torturing us by making us read comments online

Oh no, we shouldn’t be discussing this topic here in HN :-)

By the way, never NEVER ask ChatGPT what it knows about Roko’s Basilisk ;-)

Honestly I don't care if an AI tortures a trillion simulations of me for eternity. Maybe this matters to EA people in terms of minimising future suffering but to me, given they're only hypothetical copies, I couldn't care less about them.
