Regarding Yudkowsky's accusations against RationalWiki. Yudkowsky writes:
Calling this malicious is a huge exaggeration. Here is a quote from the LessWrong Wiki entry on Timeless Decision Theory:
RationalWiki explains this in the way that you should act as if it is you that is being simulated and who possibly faces punishment. This is very close to what the LessWrong Wiki says, phrased in a language that people with a larger inferential distance can understand.
Yudkowsky further writes:
This is not a malicious lie. Here is a quote from Roko's original post (emphasis mine):
This is like a robber walking up to you and explaining that you could take into account that he could shoot you if you don't give him your money.
Also notice that Roko talks about trading with uFAIs as well.
