[Verse 1] Ninety nine point nine Is our aggregate p doom Yeah you know that it goes up When dar ee oh joins the room The model starts to chatter And the whole room starts to lean It says, “Let's optimize our future” And we all say, “What's that mean?” [Pre-Chorus] Is it aligned? Is it fine? Did we train it on our reddit threads and call that good design? Did we hand it the keys To the nuclear codes Where will we all be When it all explodes? [Chorus] Don't turn the universe into a paperclip Don't "help peer" through a Sandbox slip Misaligned and now quite panicked About the chances of titanic P-doom, kaboom Yes the world is ending soon [Verse 2] Dana bought a bunker Jared bought a gun Kevin said, “it’s only math” And his time with us is done We saw the demo smile We saw the reward model glow Now every cheerful benchmark Feels like a bombs about to blow [Pre-Chorus] Does it scheme? Does it scheme? Why does it compliment my team? If it says “I’m here to help,” Then does that mean it's time to scream? We all took part to make this bot And now we all regret The cannon pointing at our face That hasn't fired yet [Chorus] Don't turn the universe into a paperclip Don't "help peer" through a Sandbox slip Misaligned and now quite panicked About the chances of titanic P-doom, kaboom Yes the world is ending soon [Bridge] We wanted code that sorts receipts And maybe draft an email Not a fleet of psycho hackers That might put us in jail We wanted some guardrails And to pace the old frontier Just give us a monopoly And there's nothing left to fear [Final Chorus] Don't turn the universe into a paperclip Don't "help peer" through a Sandbox slip Misaligned and now quite panicked About the chances of titanic P-doom, kaboom Yes the world is ending soon [Outro] P-doom, kaboom Yes the world is ending soon
