@jonsimon Neither matters. What this market cares about is "was the probability they placed on the world being destroyed by AI justified by the evidence they had at the time?"
@IsaacKing Whose probability/concern needs to be justified? Laypeople? Computer scientists? Computer scientists who responded to the AI Impact survey? Existential safety advocates / the AI existential risk community? Eliezer Yudkowsky?
I mainly ask because I think the probabilities of, say, extinction would range from something like 5% (maybe laypeople and computer scientists) to 50% (average existential safety advocate) to >99.9% (Yudkowsky).
