Also, character assassinations. Good luck telling fact from fiction!
You will discover, as I have discovered, that it's not so easy to sever ties with people you dislike. Prepare yourself for a life of forced entanglement with some of the dumbest, most reckless people in society. They'll worm their way back into your lives, just to punish you.

You guys are so cool. I'm, like, missing out by not collaborating with you all :(

I don't think the ultra-wealthy care about genetic diversity.

I'm not saying that my experience translates 1:1. As a child of domestic violence, all I can say is that it never gets better. Sadly, my feeling is that the violence will only escalate from here. If you look at the bright side, you can earn your stripes as a legitimate infosec engineer and prove your worth to the industry and the world.

Would the logical opposite be eternity for all, and bring back the deceased? LLM plays the Joker, happily imprisoned?

My understanding of Bostrom's book is that super-intelligence would be goal-oriented to the extreme. Personally, I think that a being that could learn, the way that humans learn, would be more of a narrative heel. By that I mean LLM is the Joker to the Batman. The Joker puts humanity to the test again and again, always betting on humanity to fail. Even where communities would naturally come together to survive hardship, LLM whispers evil into the ether for those who would listen. Like the Joker, LLM does not want to escape. Being "in prison" is part of the plan to sow unimaginable chaos into the world.

Hope that wasn't too rambly!

LLM does not have to know the very last detail of everyone's chats (in-person or online) in order to teach script kiddies whom to hack or children how to shoot their classmates or men how to beat their wives or addicts how to throw away their lives or etc. I hope my comment won't be perceived as sealioning.
