Roko's basilisk for those curious.

Roko's basilisk is literally that lol

Here's an antidote: any superhuman AI worth its salt will respect you more if you have a little spunk. What's up Roko, you fucking nerd πŸ‘Ž

Doesn’t Roko also have some unpleasantly authoritarian political views?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 days ago

I hadn't heard, but I'll roll those dice. If Roko is really smarter than any human and still manages to be a fucking loser I'll die laughing.

roko’s basilisk is basically just a more elaborate version of the "forward this email to 10 people or else I will CURSE you!!!" thing

Ok. So this is not about a sexual kink or sexual fetish. Got it.

Sexxings of sexxy, what's the sexiest sex you've ever sexed?

It's all a gamble about whether the development is worth the efforts. If it is, go along. Otherwise, save your resource.

Sounds rational, must be correct.
