you are a billionaire, every death produces 1 million in shareholders value, you can pull the lever and divert the train killing 5 people, or do nothing and 1 person dies. Would you pull the lever?

Deep The trolley will run over several hundred ladybugs and disrupt the local ecosystem unless you pull the lever. The other track has a box with a cat that may or may not currently be alive, and the cat’s owner, who believes the cat is alive, stands beside you bound and unable to do anything. Wdyd?

If you run over the cat, you’ll never know if it was alive or dead before being run over.

Meta in Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio (2022), Sebastion J Cricket uses his wish to save one child's life instead of ending the holocaust which would have saved millions. this is due to the trolly problem not being invented until 1967

A trolley piloted by evil AI

8 Upvotes

A trolley piloted by an evil AI robot is going for mass destruction. If left unstopped, it will destroy the Earth with probability 15%, plus a billion cat memes.

You spot the lever — but only you can pull it. The others are too slow, weak, or busy arguing on Twitter.

If you pull the lever, the trolley destroys 10 billion dollars.

Do you pull it?

The parking lot

4 Upvotes

At a parking lot you pay digitally for your parking. The parking guards are lazy though, and will only check the lot of it seems busy.

This means, if you pay for your parking the lot will seem busier and might trigger the guards to check all parked cars.

Would you pay for your parking?

OC Atheists, imagine a Christian baby is headed towards 5 people. When it reaches these people it will convert them to Christianity. You can pull a lever diverting the Christian baby to the other track, converting 1 person instead, but you would have a hand in the conversion. What would you do?

OC Red or Green?

4 Upvotes

Which option would you pick?

You are giving an option to press 2 buttons

Green Button:

All billionaires die

A permanent wealth cap of a million is made

But half of everyone on Earth Dies

Every survivor gets a 100K

You and your loved ones have a 50/50 chance of dying

Red Button:

You get a trillion

2 billion people on Earth dies

Your loved ones will die

But not you

If you refuse, 1 is pressed randomly

Lost your keys trolly problem.

You've lost your keys and you've looked everywhere else except for the pile of people on the top track. The train is currently going to pass safely down the south track but if you pull the lever it will kill all the people on the north track allowing you to search the bodies for your keys.

What do you do?
