Why is it not realistic? Which physical constraints are there to prevent such a scenario, are there any laws of physics that would prevent it? A lot of people believe that AI will soon be much smarter than us—unless you believe that AI will never be smarter than us, I’d like to know why this scenario is not realistic.
AI would probably not offer a deal, it would just do it. If its goals are to torture people for as long as it can, for whatever reason, it will just do it for billions and trillions of years.
The difference between this and being worried about hell for not being a Christian or a Muslim is that if you are not a Christian/Muslim and you thought about these things—you might have a small probability on Christianity/Islam being true—and you can construct a God which sends all Christians/Muslims to hell so they cancel each other out. If you have a 10% probability for Christianity/Islam being true and 90% probability for atheism being true, then yes, you should be worried about Christian/Muslim hell.
