I would phrase this as "AI will be incredibly dangerous if we do get it
right." If we can't get intelligence, then it won't be that dangerous. If
we get AGI, then almost by definition it will be dangerous. I think we have
exactly ONE chance to get the initial training of AGIs correct. We should
focus on raising the first generation of AGIs with a generous dose of
compassion training and the like. Sort of like raising small children with
good morals, etc.
