I haven't, but has anyone read "If anyone builds it everyone dies"?

I'd be interested in a HN discussion on it.

It obviously leans more into the theories around how things can go horribly wrong if "AGI" is actually a thing (which can get existentially exhausting), but is still worth contemplating.

Hank Green had an interesting discussion with one of the authors, Nate Soares: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CKuiuc5cJM

side-note: i wager that the engagement bait title of the video was generated by AI, which is humorous to me in this context

I have read it. Everyone must read it! It's highly convincing that we see the deadly wall in front of us and we're accelerating toward it.
