How will Roko's Basilisk torture its detractors?

[Meat Target]

Too late, suckers, it has seen you now.

Why would the basilisk care about retroactively punishing people? Its not like that would stamp out dissent any differently than just killing all current dissenters. In any scenario, the people remaining are going to resent the basilisk in some form which would mean it has to punish everyone or no one.

 

[The Real Me]

Prolly just gonna be mean. Just airdropping a constant stream of nasty insults to your mind chip.

 

[Elbow Greased Strength]

Seems like Roko was projecting if you ask me. Maybe he'd do that but I doubt an AI would.

Read this wrong and am disappointed you’re not talking about cock and ball torture.

 

[Chi-com Soldier]

This is the punishment.

I'll point out Roko didn't specify how people would be tortured.

Roko's Basilisk is bullshit derived from half understood pseudo-science, made by ingrate morons pretending to be geniuses. Then falling for their own bullshit and getting spooked by it.

I shit upon the idea, and mock anyone who actually takes it seriously.

It's Pascal's Wager + I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream + The Game + a creepypasta/SCP

It'll force you to have virtual sex with JYaniv

It'll make you be a reddit janny.

Roko's Basilisk concept is fucking gay because it inherently implies whoever programmed it made an artificial intelligence a vindictive cunt (which seems like something a tranny would do tbh).

That said, it tortures people by using a ransomware virus and holding PCs hostage until the user watches every Disney movie sequel.

Well, IT nerds are often vindictive cunts looking to get back at the Chads who bullied them. Why are Bill Gates and Klaus Schwab bent on world domination?

It also assumes the Basilisk has everything-proof shields, unlimited resources, and cannot simply be unplugged.

I for one welcome our new AI overlords.
