I would say “advanced memetics”. Like “AGI uploads weird video on Youtube, it goes viral, 3 billions people watch it and do what AGI needs them to do from now on, for example, build robots and commit suicide when there are enough robots. All AI and AI Safety researchers are subjected to a personalized memetic attack, of course”.
This is a really, really implausible scenario again. You have no evidence that such memetics exist, and the smart money is that they don’t. If they do, there’s no guarantee that the AI would be able to figure them out. Being smarter than humans—even way smarter than humans—does not equate to godhood. The AI will not be able to predict the weather 3 weeks out, and I’m not sure that it will be able to predict the exact reactions of each of a billion different human brain to a video input—not at the granularity required for something like what you’re suggesting.
I think AI is a threat. I’m trying to be on your side here. But I really can’t swallow these exaggerated, made up scenarios.

Thanks for responding with an actual proposal.
