but if we're talking about what could affect people with OCD/anxiety conditions, then it's probably just the "uFAI talking about torturing people" aspect that was deemed problematic anyway.

Ahh, I remember the one. It was titled "What do you choose? 3^^^3 people being tortured for 50 years or some E. coli in the eye?" uFAIs in counterfactuals do evil things in contrived scenarios. It's what they do.

Oh, wow, I don't think I saw that one. I guess that makes three banned AI-torture posts, then?

Edit: The one I was thinking of was "Acausal torture? But a scratch, in the multiverse. (A dialogue for human and UFAI)".
