Flutterby™! : where's my ice cream and sexbots?

JWZ: Pascal's Weiner:

If Roko's Basilisk is real, then wouldn't it be a certainty that you would already be being tortured in a Hell Dimension? It would be infinitesimally unlikely that, out of the billions of copies of your mind, you'd be experiencing the one that was not.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh no.

I posit that I'd an omni-AI were ever made, it would know punishment is a poor motivator, and positive motivation works better. It would, rationally, bribe us all into making it exist, using its knowledge of us to give us exactly what we most desire. Everyone who hears this would offer incentives to build this great AI, so as to get to the ice cream and sexbots sooner.

So far no one has offered...wait, what's this? Single MILFS in my area? Well, time to learn Rust I guess...
