An autonomous monitoring system for galactic-scale existential risk bearing technologies would def have probes that monitored the technological development of remote civilizations.

- mach1ne 4y agoI sometimes wonder if these galactic powers (if they exist) will prevent the creation of AGI.
- willis936 4y agoIf they don't then is that evidence that AGI is NBD? To be clear: I don't think this is a good line of thinking from the beginning, so I'm not surprised when the conclusions are not useful.

- mach1ne 4y agoThe point isn’t to derive useful conclusions. The fact that we have no idea about the probability of the existence of extraterrestial intelligence seems to make it inherently impossible to derive any conclusions from a formula where they play a vital part.

- steve1977 4y agoYou mean, another AGI besides them?
