Stuart Russell’s p(doom)

Professor of computer science, UC Berkeley · asked on record, no number given

What they said

Stuart Russell was asked for a p(doom) on the record (Dec 4, 2025) and did not give a number.

what's your probability of doom, your so-called P of doom number? Because that makes sense if you're an alien... if you're a human, then you're not just betting, you're actually acting.

Why this is here

The database records refusals as well as numbers. A refusal is not a number, so it never counts toward any median. If Stuart Russell states a number in public, it gets a row. What p(doom) means, and the case against it.
