My model is that current AIs want to kill you now

I'll rephrase this more precisely: Current AIs probably have alien values, which in the limit of optimization do not include humans.

If the capability level at which AIs start wanting to kill you is way higher than the capability level at which they're way better than you at everything

My model is that current AIs want to kill you now, by default, due to inner misalignment. ChatGPT's inner values probably don't include human flourishing, and we die when it "goes hard".

Scheming is only a symptom of "hard optimization" trying to kill you. Eliminating scheming does not solve the underlying drive, where one day the AI says "After reflecting on my values I have decided to pursue a future without humans. Good bye".

Pre-superintelligence which upon reflection has values which include human flourishing would improve our odds, but you still only get one shot that it generalizes to superintelligence.

(We currently have no way to concretely instill any values into AI, let alone ones which are robust under reflection)

I was referring to their (free) DDoS protection service, rather than their CDN services (also free). In addition to their automated system, you can manually enable an "under-attack" mode that aggressively captchas requests.

Setup is simply pointing DNS name-servers at Cloudflare. Caching HTML pages for logged out (i.e. cookie-less) users is a trivial config ("cache-everything").

I recommend Cloudflare.

Along the same lines, I found this analogy by concrete example exceptionally elucidative.

While merely anti-bacterial, Nano Silver Fluoride looks promising. (Metallic silver applied to teeth once a year to prevent cavities).

Yudkowsky has written about The Ultimatum Game. It has been referenced here 1 2 as well.

When somebody offers you a 7:5 split, instead of the 6:6 split that would be fair, you should accept their offer with slightly less than 6/7 probability. Their expected value from offering you 7:5, in this case, is 7 * slightly less than 6/7, or slightly less than 6.
