Doom Debates — Violent Robots, Eliezer’s Warning & Dylan’s 80% P(Doom)

A tense, urgent look at whether powerful AI will steer us toward catastrophe or can be steered safely. (Original: 1 hour → Condensed: 5 minutes.) Host Liron Shapira sits down with Wes Roth and Dylan Curious to trace how curiosity turned to alarm, why Eliezer Yudkowsky’s If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies reignited the debate, and how realistic fears about violent robots, automated research races, and social-engineering attacks are. You’ll get clear takeaways on P(Doom) (Dylan’s 80% framing vs. Wes’s humility), governance options—from binding international treaties to an AGI corporate governance model—plus near-term harms like job automation, privacy erosion, and political manipulation. Featuring concrete policy and alignment ideas, analysis of market incentives, and signs of growing public pressure.
