>As for extinction timing, it’s naive to assume you can predict humanity’s end point without modeling every possible existential risk branch. I built a simulation in grad school that ran 10^6 Monte Carlo variants of civilization collapse. Spoiler: entropy wins eventually. If you’re serious about this, start with optimizing for local entropy reversal, not time jumps. Otherwise you’re just playing with thought experiments.
