Roko’s basilisk is a thought experiment proposed in 2010 by the user Roko on the Less Wrong community blog. Roko used ideas in decision theory to argue that a sufficiently powerful AI agent would have an incentive to torture anyone who imagined the agent but didn't work to bring the agent into existence. The argument was called a "basilisk" because merely hearing the argument would supposedly put you at risk of torture from this hypothetical agent — a basilisk in this context is any information that harms or endangers the people who hear it.

Roko's argument was broadly rejected on Less Wrong, with commenters objecting that an agent like the one Roko was describing would have no real reason to follow through on its threat: once the agent already exists, it can't affect the probability of its existence, so torturing people for their past decisions would be a waste of resources. Although several decision theories allow one to follow through on acausal threats and promises — via the same precommitment methods that permit mutual cooperation in prisoner's dilemmas — it is not clear that such theories can be blackmailed. If they can be blackmailed, this additionally requires a large amount of shared information and trust between the agents, which does not appear to exist in the case of Roko's basilisk.

Less Wrong's founder, Eliezer Yudkowsky, banned discussion of Roko's basilisk on the blog for several years as part of a general site policy against spreading potential information hazards. This had the opposite of its intended effect: a number of outside websites began sharing information about Roko's basilisk, as the ban attracted attention to this taboo topic. Websites like RationalWiki spread the assumption that Roko's basilisk had been banned because Less Wrong users accepted the argument; thus many criticisms of Less Wrong cite Roko's basilisk as evidence that the site's users have unconventional and wrong-headed beliefs.

They didn't do it from the bottom of their bleeding hearts, they did it because they were paid very well by us, the taxpayers. When I pay for competence, I expect competence. They are not heroes, they are people who were paid to solve a problem.

The root of problem is that draconian copyright laws got shoved down our throats by lobbyists. What we need is to redefine the meaning of fair use to expand it to streaming and other "transformative" uses.

What magic battery tech does it use? It's going to need power to broadcast at any useful distance. Sure, you can shrink a transmitter down to nanoscale, but the battery is a different story.

I rarely buy any name brand goods on Amazon anymore, as it's 50/50 these days you'll get the actual product and not some Chinese knockoff, even when fulfilled by Amazon. Stories abound of people getting counterfeit goods, pieces of wood, bricks, etc. Amazon seems to think returns is the way to go, but they could save us all the hassle by actually policing their marketplace sellers.
