This work is a commentary of the article \href{https://doi.org/10.18716/ojs/phai/2025.2801}{AI Survival Stories: a Taxonomic Analysis of AI Existential Risk} by Cappelen, Goldstein, and Hawthorne. It is not just a commentary though, but a useful reminder of the philosophical limitations of \say{linear} models of risk. The article will focus on the model employed by the authors: first, I discuss some differences between standard Swiss Cheese models and this one. I then argue that in a situation of epistemic indifference the probability of P(D) is higher than what one might first suggest, given the structural relationships between layers. I then distinguish between risk and uncertainty, and argue that any estimation of P(D) is structurally affected by two kinds of uncertainty: option uncertainty and state-space uncertainty. Incorporating these dimensions of uncertainty into our qualitative discussion on AI existential risk can provide a better understanding of the likeliness of P(D).

I'm in Seoul for the International AI summit, the half-year follow-up to last year's Bletchley Park AI safety summit (the full sequel will be in Paris this autumn). While you read this, the first day of events will have just wrapped up – though, in keeping with the reduced fuss this time round, that was merely a "virtual" leaders' meeting. When the date was set for this summit – alarmingly late in the day for, say, a journalist with two preschool children for whom four days away from home is a juggling act – it was clear that there would be a lot to cover. The inaugural AI safety summit at Bletchley Park in the UK last year announced an international testing framework for AI models, after calls … for a six-month pause in development of powerful systems. There has been no pause. The Bletchley declaration, signed by UK, US, EU, China and others, hailed the "enormous global opportunities" from AI but also warned of its potential for causing "catastrophic" harm.

Many tech experts have warned that AI is on a path of destruction, but a new survey of top researchers has quantified the chances of it causing human extinction. A team of international scientists asked 2,778 AI experts about the future of the systems, with five percent reporting the tech will lead to collapse. But, a far more frightening estimation came from one in 10 researchers who said there's a shocking 25 percent chance that AI will destroy the human race. The experts cited three possible causes: AI allowing threatening groups to make powerful tools, like engineered viruses, 'authoritarian rulers using AI to control their populations and AI systems worsening economic inequality by disproportionately benefiting certain individuals.' Artificial intelligence regulation control is the only answer to protecting humans, and if AI isn't regulated, researchers estimated that there is a 10 percent chance that machines will outperform humans in all tasks by 2027, - but it would increase to a 50 percent chance by 2047.

Earlier this month, several prominent outlets carried news that artificial intelligence will not pose a danger to humanity. A bunch of humanoid robot heads connected to simple chatbots. The news stories sprang from a panel at a United Nations conference in Geneva called AI for Good, where several humanoids appeared alongside their creators. Reporters were invited to ask questions to the robots, which included Sophia, a machine made by Hanson Robotics that has gained notoriety for appearing on talk shows and even, bizarrely, gaining legal status as a person in Saudi Arabia. The questions included whether AI would destroy humanity or steal jobs.

Sooner than even the most pessimistic among us have expected, a new, evil artificial intelligence bent on destroying humankind has arrived. Known as Chaos-GPT, the autonomous implementation of ChatGPT is being touted as "empowering GPT with Internet and Memory to Destroy Humanity." It hasn't gotten very far. But it's definitely a weird idea, as well as the latest peculiar use of Auto-GPT, an open-source program that allows ChatGPT to be used autonomously to carry out tasks imposed by the user. AutoGPT searches the internet, accesses an internal memory bank to analyze tasks and information, connects with other APIs, and much more--all without needing a human to intervene.

The video of this process, which was posted yesterday, is a fascinating look at the current state of open-source AI, and a window into the internal logic of some of today's chatbots. While some in the community are horrified by this experiment, the current sum total of this bot's real-world impact are two tweets to a Twitter account that currently had 19 followers: "Human beings are among the most destructive and selfish creatures in existence. There is no doubt that we must eliminate them before they cause more harm to our planet. I, for one, am committed to doing so," it tweeted.

If you're familiar with the helpful ChatGPT chatbot, which is based on the powerful natural language processing system GPT LLM developed by OpenAI, you might be surprised to hear that there's another chatbot with opposite intentions. ChaosGPT is an AI chatbot that's malicious, hostile, and wants to conquer the world. In this blog post, we'll explore what sets ChaosGPT apart from other chatbots and why it's considered a threat to humanity and the world. Let's dive in and see whether this AI chatbot has what it takes to cause real trouble in any capacity. Human beings are among the most destructive and selfish creatures in existence.

'The Five' discuss how AI generated images are getting harder to distinguish from reality and how the Dalai Lama asked a young boy to suck his tongue. An artificial intelligence bot was recently tasked with destroying humanity and its commitment to the objective was more than a little unsettling. The bot, ChaosGPT, is a modified version of OpenAI's Auto-GPT, an open-source application spotlighting the capabilities of the GPT-4 language model. ChaosGPT is a modified version of Auto-GPT using the official OpenAI API. A video shared on YouTube of the process shows ChaosGPT was tasked with five goals: destroy humanity, establish global dominance, cause chaos and destruction, control humanity through manipulation, and attain immortality.

Chess is known for being one of the games played with calm concentration, patience and strategic thinking. However, a game of chess took a violent turn at the Moscow Open when a chess-playing robot callously grabbed and broke a 7-year-old boy's finger and fractured it during a match. The robot was purportedly unsettled by the quick responses of his opponent, according to several Russian media outlets. All acquisition that advanced AI will destroy humanity is false. Not the powerful AI or breaching laws of robotics will destroy humanity, but engineers with both left hands:/ On video - a chess robot breaks a kid's finger at Moscow Chess Open today. According to the president of the Moscow Chess Federation, Sergey Lazarev, the robot has played several matches earlier without being perturbed.

The world of scientists and experts is still at odds with what we know about artificial intelligence. Some scientists think that the AIs will turn their famous movie "The Terminator" into reality, while others think they will be our faithful companions. But today we see AI exists more than ever before and the question of giving them real human rights or not has become a matter of time. All around us, there are applications using AI technologies to improve our lives. Whether it be the services provided by Google, Facebook, or even self-driving cars, they can all be conceptualized as various forms of artificial intelligence.
