Summary
In February 2020, LessWrong hosted Coronavirus: Justified Practical Advice Thread . It was a gathering place for people to share and debate small pieces of the overall survival policy and let the wisdom of crowds lead to better outcomes than anyone could get alone.

In that spirit, I notice The Great AI Hackening is at least as imminent as covid was in January 2020, maybe closer. What specific things should people do to personally prepare? All suggestions should be accompanied by reasoning but you don't need to be 100% convinced it's good advice, the whole point is to reason it out together.
