  For some reason this pixellated mandleblot took me back to 1993
  
  I never got the motivation this "otherwise benevolent superintelligence" would have to behave like this. There seems to be absolutely no benefit whatsoever that could be derived retroactively punishing people for not working on it (hard enough). Whether or not it does is immaterial to the motivation of those who were convinced it might.
  
  Also, focusing on one possible future scenario and completely ordering your life around it seems, like, dumb.
  
  Yea. Punishment only make sense in influencing future behavior. Once the AI exist... it already exists...
  
  Supposedly Musk and Grimes started dating because they are both way into Roko's Basilisk. So of course Musk is trying to actively create such a threat.

  Sounds painful. They'll appreciate that.
