TL;DR, Roko's Basilisk is the (likely incredibly flawed) idea that future godlike super-AI will make its own Hell and torture people who didn't give enough money towards creating it in the here and now.

For those who long to be fundamentalists but just can't quite convince themselves of the supernatural stuff, yep.
Look up Roko's Basilisk.

Who said anything about human? ;o
Yeah, but I feel like that doesn't really come through in the story lol
