How will AI change the world?
Across: their expressed Doom–Bloom outlook. Up: scale of transformation.
Doom–Bloom: 93 out of 100. Scale of transformation: 94 out of 100. Interpretation ranges: 88 to 100 horizontally, 89 to 100 vertically. These are interpretation coordinates, not event probabilities.
≈6%
Inferred from their simulated answers, not a number they gave. Plausible range: 4–10%.
A central assumption
aligning the machines is easier than aligning humans with each other; control politics is the hard part.Answer 4
If this assumption turned out differently, how would their outlook change?
More details
Transformative, broadly valuable gains are expected.
100 / 100
Interpretation range 100 to 100 on the qualitative scale.
Several readings remain plausible: Manageable or localized harms are expected. / Little material adverse impact is expected. / Severe or widespread harm is a material expected part of the future.
28 / 100
Interpretation range 0 to 67 on the qualitative scale.
Human choices can substantially redirect the AI trajectory.
79 / 100
Interpretation range 45 to 100 on the qualitative scale.
AI is expected to remain bounded tools.
AI is expected to match people across most cognitive work.
Simulated position: AI is expected to substantially exceed people across cognitive work.
Stop or substantially slow development of more capable AI.
Continue development under stated safeguards.
Simulated position: Speed up development of more capable AI.
These interpretations keep their stated conditions. Benefits and harms can both be substantial. The ranges describe how we read their simulated answers, not statistical confidence intervals.
