Roko used ideas in decision theory to argue that a sufficiently powerful AI agent would have an incentive to torture anyone who imagined the agent but didn't work to bring the agent into existence. The argument was called a "basilisk" because merely hearing the argument would supposedly put you at risk of torture from this hypothetical agent — a basilisk in this context is any information that harms or endangers the people who hear it"

would this happen in real life or not? would this be realistic for it to happen in the real world?
This is actually a really interesting question- i have a character/being concept remarkably similar to such.
It's name is Moe'ck. It means "The word" or "The Tongue"
It's kind of like a language, kind of not. When you speak it, you are possessed by "The Tongue". You are given great power, but it hurts you severely everytime you use this power.
Once you know it's secret, you cannot unlearn it. It is a part of you.
