crazy how the bomb ignored the island in the middle, didn't know we had donut nukes
You can't convince me that isn't a nipple snuck in by the image creator.

Ok, so to be clear, you're saying that AI x-risk is already partially or even mostly bundled under "We end stratified society and power disparity, or we die."?
wrote on last edited by [email protected]That is a good assessment. Yes.
In fact, the race between capitalist interests to bypass safety and get operational AGI soonest is entirely about getting that power to be able to use it to hold everyone else hostage.

Every single nuke in the world pointed at the same spot could not achieve anything even close to this.
This would require an asteroid/comet impact
.. an order of magnitude, or two, or three, more destructive than the chicxulub impact that wiped out the dinosaurs.The entire chicxulub impact crater is about the size of 'Mound Island'.
An impact this huge would probably shatter the crust of much of, if not the entire planet, and turn the entire atmosphere into fire.
That circle is roughly about 2000 miles across (according to rough measurements in Google maps), which is only about 2x the size of the Gulf of Mexico.
But yeah, this would be a cataclysmic event.

the safest place is in the eye of the nuke

No, but they could create a thin glass crust over the whole area that would accomplish much the same effect.

Yeah, fair enough, I do agree that this is largely driven by capitalism, and if we didn't have a capitalist society we would hopefully be going about this more cautiously. Still, I feel like it's a unique enough situation that I would consider it its own x-risk.

But anime amiright?

And the image isn't in our reality
You really think someone is going to nuke the middle east and humanity is going to survive a blast bigger than one that killed the dinosaurs?No, I think there is a perpetual war going on there, and US is getting involved in it with depressing frequency with depressingly negative results, and although I don't believe it will be inevitability, randomly bombing random countries surely is a good recipe for a bad outcome.

Why? Only a couple people in that country actually cause the bad stuff
And majority of people support them, also ruzzians are known to be barbarian slaver nation.

Maybe the crater was caused by this dense fucker finally collapsing into a black hole
