What was said

""I think it's very plausible that everything [ __ ] goes down in 2027, just like in our scenario, AI 2027. Um, I think that's still very plausible. If it's not in 2027, then I would bet on 2028.""

Daniel Kokotajlo predicts a severe AI loss-of-control scenario could occur in 2027 and says he would bet on 2028 if not. He adds he would be surprised if 2032 arrived without radical change.
