I got a lot out of this and am reading the associated paper. I have some questions. Why isn't criminal liability also included?

Is there a source for Elon Musk's p(doom)?

@@mrpicky1868 Agree, but as an addition I think the online book is very helpful as a good source of information. It gives a concise overview of the CAIS research findings that is readily accessible for international AI safety agents and the general public. the website also offers courses on the subject.

He doesn't provide any justification for why we should be more concerned about these problems than about the alignment of true super-intelligence, nor any for why he thinks we are in a 'medium take-off' situation, or why we should be replaced with a 'species' instead of a singleton. *(These programs don't mate. They are not related to each other. They don't age and die and replace themselves. One would probably triumph in the end, I think, however long that takes)*. I'm left with the impression he just likes to tackle easier problems. Though if the former problem, super-alignment, is totally intractable you could argue that it makes sense to focus on what is doable and just hope we get lucky about the alignment. He doesn't really make that argument though.
