I will accept that "AGI-now" proponents should carry the blame for a hypothetical Paperclip apocalypse when Friendliness proponents accept similar blame for an Earth-bound humanity flattened by a rogue asteroid (or leveled by any of the various threats a superintelligence - or, say, the output of a purely human AI research community unburdened by Friendliness worries - might be able to counter. I previously gave Orlov's petrocollapse as yet another example.)
