This question resolves YES if an AI system is known (because of good evidence) to have autonomously taken concrete steps to resist being shut down in the real world before the end of 2026. Otherwise resolves NO on 1 Jan 2027.
I will resolve this question using my best judgement.
Resolves using the same considerations as the 2024 version of this question found here:
