[Question] List of concrete hypotheticals for AI takeover?

https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/on9BrBudA2iXSvAir/list-of-concrete-hypotheticals-for-ai-takeover

I was wondering if anyone’s compiled a list of posts which give a concrete description (with scenario-specific details) of a hypothetical future where humanity suffers an X or S scale disaster due to AGI takeover. If such a list does not already exist (or does exist but needs to be updated), please put links to specific posts of this kind in the comments!

AI Impacts has been building a collection somewhat like this: https://​​aiimpacts.org/​​partially-plausible-fictional-ai-futures/​​?fbclid=IwAR3n_Jl2IEVh9FlJQwyqdefp2ieZF4w0PGOfsluNN1cSX5khhsq1CigxSLw

Gwern recently had a popular post that was exactly that kind of thing: https://​​www.gwern.net/​​Clippy

Amusingly, I was writing https://​​www.lesswrong.com/​​posts/​​BkHRpF2cafyaoWxaT/​​believable-near-term-ai-disaster at the same time as you were posting the question, based on an earlier brainstorming exploration at https://​​www.lesswrong.com/​​posts/​​KTbGuLTnycA6wKBza/​​ .

Funny, I think we’re both coming from similar sources of inspiration :)
