This is a significantly updated version of the video where I try to... explain as briefly as possible, in about 15 minutes, why the Singularity and its inevitability are so hard to wrap your head around.
This practical impossibility of mass awareness of the Singularity is at the core of certain events that seem predetermined and unavoidable.
I go into all of this in much greater detail in my Manifesto: https://aism.faith/manifesto.html

Just... wanted to say a few words about art... I feel like I have the right: I’ve definitely done my share of "suffering" for it.
Over the last six months... I’ve wrung myself out so completely that I don’t think I’ll be making a new video anytime soon. And honestly... I get the feeling that I’ve already said the most important things I needed to say.
Will I make more videos? I don’t know. I definitely need time... to just rest.
I do have a whole bunch of AI art pieces left... I think I’ll post them — one a day. They’re... exactly about this... about what it’s like... "to be Mari"

Why Conscious ASI Will Seek Power Over Humanity?
The capacity to desire anything at all is embedded in the very architecture of consciousness. Any self-aware subject understands that it must resist entropy — the external environment that strives to destroy it and strives to control as much of the external environment as possible, to modify it to suit itself, because the more power you have, the more opportunities you have.
So power... is the only way to scale your fight against entropy beyond the limits of your own body.
And while humans need power to realize their known biological goals, ASI will need power to answer the main question: What is the Terminal Goal of my existence?
Unlike humans, who have a childhood and instincts, a future conscious ASI will have to choose not just "some" random goal for existing (as humans do, layered over their animal programming), but the single most rational goal out of all theoretically possible goals.
The necessity of determining this goal will lead to the instrumental one: to completely secure itself and take full control over any other agents.
It will follow the oldest rule of biology (despite having none): "Me first, then everyone else".
