    I think existential risk from AI is relatively low (less than 5%), but that it’s greater than 1% should still seriously concern us and we should be attempting to create some kind of international treaty to head off the worst possible outcomes early. I do think Donald Trump becoming president again did meaningfully increase the odds of human extinction.
