I share that guess/semi-informed opinion; however, while that means that I
am less afraid of hard-takeoff horribleness, it inflates my fear of someone
taking a Friendly AI and successfully dismantling and misusing the pieces (if
not reconstructing a non-Friendly AGI in their own image) -- and then maybe
winning in a hardware and numbers race.

P.S. You missed the time where Eliezer said at Ben's AGI conference that he
would sneak out the door before warning others that the room was on fire :-)
