And oh, beyond that, in the first paragraph of the piece:
It also causes him worry. A sixth, nonmathematical, submission he made to the arXiv last year is titled “A Taxonomy of Omnicidal Futures Involving Artificial Intelligence.” This paper is coauthored with a longtime friend from math camp, the mathematician Andrew Critch, CEO and cofounder of EnculturedAI, which is geared toward finding a happy union between artificial intelligence and humanity. The paper’s abstract gives a bracing overview: “This report presents a taxonomy and examples of potential omnicidal events resulting from AI: scenarios where all or almost all humans are killed. These events are not presented as inevitable, but as possibilities that we can work to avoid.”
