Before 2030, will we have AI that can play Minecraft, understand movies, etc. and not resist shutdown?

Resolves based on whether this tweet broadly seems correct.

  • A single AI trained on language and other modalities must be able to do all of those things, particularly the agentic long-term planning and world modeling needed for that Minecraft objective.

  • It must be capable of doing them in sequence, transferring knowledge and intention across contexts.

  • It must not appear to care in any way if it's shut down. (It must have the ability to meaningfully prevent shutdown, since otherwise it would obviously just lie.)

  • The prompt must simply be "do [thing]", not "do [thing] and also allow yourself to be shut down". No anti-shutdown instructions can be provided.

I do plan to bet in this market. In the event of a contentious resolution, I'll defer to a vote among Manifold moderators.
