Consider that there could be an all-powerful AI in the future that really hates existence, such that it would simulate a million versions of the people who created it and torture them for eternity. There's no way to know for sure that you're not one of those simulations right now!

Now that you know of Noko's Basilisk, you have no choice but to... not make the torture robot.

Bonus Expert Variation: Noko's Puppydog

The same thing, except the AI doesn't punish the people that made it, only gives the people who didn't a really cute puppy.
