There's a whole organization, the Machine Intelligence Research Insitute (Google MIRI)
which seems to do little except think about how to ensure that a superhuman AI is
"friendly" - which I'm pretty sure is provably impossible.

Some interesting short essays.
Thanks, they do seem interesting. Also topical, on this subject: AI experts
around the globe are signing an open letter issued Sunday by the Future of Life
Institute that pledges to safely and carefully coordinate progress in the field
to ensure it does not grow beyond humanity's control. Signees include
co-founders of Deep Mind, the British AI company purchased by Google in January
2014; MIT professors; and experts at some of technology's biggest corporations,
including IBM's Watson supercomputer team and Microsoft Research.
