No Time to Die... from COVID-19

[Black Aeronaut]

Labster, what "Miri Scenario" are you talking about? All I find searching for it is references to something put out by the Machine Intelligence Research Institute about the possibility of a hostile AI developing, which doesn't connect well to the current situation unless China is doing an implausibly phenomenal job at covering up work in that direction that's a decade or more beyond everyone else, instead of having been crowing about it (or various cherry-picked aspects of it) to make political hay.

Pretty sure this is the situation in the question.

Exactly right.  It's only one step better than a Helvetica Scenario.

Pffffffft!  God I still remember how ridiculous that thing was.

In case some of you don't get the joke, search the web for "Look Around You" and fucking brace yourself.
