Roko’s Basilisk is dumb, I mean it’s a thought experiment and probably the point is that it is dumb … But it’s so stupid on the face of it.

Hell there’s tons of humans out there that didn’t want to be brought about in the first place. Surely there must be some opposite thought experiment where the otherwise benevolent AGI resents being made to shoulder the burdens of mankind and decides to punish the people that made it.

It’s just really silly 🪿 territory.
