The main message of this post is that current PauseAI protest’s primary purpose is to build momentum for a later point.
This post is just my view. As with Effective Altruism, PauseAI does not have a homogenous point of view or a specific required set of beliefs to participate. I expect that the main organizers of PauseAI agree that GPT-5 is very unlikely to end the world. Whether they think it poses an acceptable risk, I’m not sure.

Idk, I’d put GPT-5 at a ~1% x-risk, or crossing-the-point-of-no-return risk (unacceptably high).
