Draft youtube script on ASI takeover and astronomical suffering
Intro to this post
- Back when I was making youtube videos about ASI risk, here's a youtube script I wrote.
- I made the video but it performed poorly, so feel free to remake it. Feel free to use this however you wish.
- Goal is being memetic and addictive, so I have selectively emphasised some ideas, and not others. I don't think I have actively lied about anything.
- It's a short fiction story about Sam Altman using bioweapons, massive drone strikes, threats of astronomical suffering and just about every other tactic to centralise power and create a permanent dictatorship, before he finally loses control of the ASI itself. It is dramatised for cinematic effect, although I think a lot of these things can also actually happen irl with non-zero probability.
