# The RSI Clock

The RSI Clock is one public number for how close the world is to rogue super intelligence. On November 8, 2026 it reads **29 minutes to rogue SI**, from an RSI Index of 51.3 out of 100 built daily from five public inputs: rogue incidents, forecasts, the control gap, the headlines and public attention. Midnight means rogue SI.

Behind the number

## Five public inputs

Each input is turned into a score from 0 to 100 against a published baseline, then weighted. Higher means closer to rogue SI. Every input links to its source.

1. **Rogue incidents**Weight 30% · [Rogue Incident Database](https://enterrsi.si/incidents/)
   8 incidents in the last 90 days, 3 at level 5, 4 at level 4, 1 at level 3, 84 points

History

## Every reading, every move

A new reading is taken every day. The clock itself moves rarely: only when the 7 day average shifts by 3 points or more, and every move is announced here with its reason.

The formula

## Published in full

Anyone can check a reading. The weights, baselines and the rule for moving the clock are fixed and public; if they ever change, the change is announced here first.

```
RSI Index = (sum of weight x input) / (sum of weights with a reading today)
  incidents  30%  = 100 x min(1, points / 160), points = sum of 2^(level - 1) over cases in the last 90 days
  forecasts  25%  = half timing (mean of P(AGI or SI by 2030) in %), half catastrophe (P(extinction by 2100) / 25%, capped at 100)
  policy     20%  = 100 - coverage, coverage = 2 per measure in force + 1 per passed + 0.5 per voluntary + 1 per dated step due in 90 days (max 100)
  mainstream 15%  = 100 x min(1, Mainstream Meter / 30%)
  attention  10%  = 50 + 50 x log2(7 day average views / 365 day median), kept between 0 and 100
S = average RSI Index over the last 7 readings
Minutes to rogue SI = 60 x (1 - S / 100), rounded to a whole minute
The clock moves only when S is 3.0 or more away from its value at the last move.
```

| Input | Weight | Reads 0 when | Reads 100 when |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rogue incidents | 30% | No incidents in 90 days | 160 points: about ten level 5 cases in 90 days |
| Forecasts | 25% | Forecasters see no SI before 2030 and no catastrophe | Certain SI by 2030 and a 25% or higher chance of catastrophe |
| Control gap | 20% | Coverage of 100: about 50 binding measures in force | No measures at all |
| Mainstream Meter | 15% | No headlines about rogue SI | 30% of SI headlines, stage 5, Household |
| Public attention | 10% | Views at a quarter of normal | Views at four times normal (50 is normal) |

Forecast questions

### Where the forecasts come from

- [Will we get AGI before 2030?](https://manifold.markets/RemNi/will-we-get-agi-before-2030) timing
- [Conditional on no existential catastrophe, will there be a superintelligence by 2030?](https://manifold.markets/IsaacKing/will-there-be-a-superintelligence-b-10fdd93e8092) timing
- [Will AI wipe out humanity before the year 2100](https://manifold.markets/jdilla/will-ai-wipe-out-humanity-before-th) catastrophe

Metaculus questions 5121 (Date of Artificial General Intelligence) and 3479 (Date Weakly General AI is Publicly Known) join the timing half once the site holds a Metaculus API key; the median date counts 100 minus 10 points per year away.

Rules

### How readings work

- One reading per day, taken after 00:10 UTC with the latest public data.
- An input with no reading that day is left out and the others share its weight.
- Wikipedia views run a day or two behind; the reading uses the last 7 full days available.
- Every reading keeps its own dated page, so past numbers never change.
- The clock is a public signal about SI risk, never a forecast of any price.
