Flashy dystopiathink is probably a civilizational risk at this point due to the pathways to more mediocre dystopias being neglected. The image of AGI as Terminator to genpop, or Yud style foom nonsense for more sophisticated types blinding individuals to dreary panopticons.

there's a curve to this; if you lose "too much" people will assert the same right to tell you to do what they think is best for you as when you're too heavy

My friend lost about 30kg and is crashing out because he just realized how superficial people really are. Folks are suddenly nicer to him, and he's become more visible at work.
