Imagine if someone said "what if someone forms a cult that murders everyone in the world that's not in the cult. We would get murdered if that happened. Let's make the cult ourselves so we're on the inside and don't get murdered". It's like that but with making an evil ai instead of a cult and for eternal torture instead of murder

I LOVE CLOSED LOOP CIRCULAR LOGIC

It is unironically the most satisfying since its not just an assertion and it doesn't have infinitely regressive dependencies.

Idiotic thought experiment that has a meta element which impresses low iq normies

It's real and we're currently living it

That's because it was made up to spite Big Yud with his non-causal decision theory autism. Not a concern for anyone who acknowledges that you should made decisions based on the outcomes they can actually CAUSE.

It's more retarded if you do get it.

It's not an evil AI - this is the GOOD AI

it's famous because the founder of lesswrong forum deleted the post and banned the user roko

what if there were a boot SO BIG, you had to lick it before it even existed?

>it's retarded
Sounds like you do get it.

It's just applying Christian theology (God will send you to hell if you don't buhleeve) to scifi (AI will upload you to virtual hell if you don't help build it.)

That's literally the entire deal. It's absolutely retarded.

Wait, it's the fucking red/blue button question and the red-button-pressing niggers again.

>>16976324
It assumes a godlike ai is retarded and has to go through convoluted schemes

Midwit philosophy that asserts a first order game theory solution without any connection to reality.

The straight of hormuz is a great example of where philosophy fails. You have international law about freedom of navigation and oil producers who want to sell bit can't and buyers who can't. What do we see? Only Iran and US are doing anything. Every other nation is passive, despite the large economic costs to them.

Game theory might assert they do something, but reality is that they continue their history of passivity and aren't willing to expend any resources to eventually build up the capability to do something. Meanwhile Iran and Russia are willing to build direct pipelines to China. Gulf states and their buyers aren't willing to build pipelines or oil railroads to safer ports, in part because they hope the interruption will end soon.

The vast majority of parties aren't going to bother with creating a cult for a hypothetical threat. They will focus on more pressing real issues.

The "intelligent aliens hide because they
they'll murder each other on detection because the other aliens might murder them" is the same gay false choice.
