Yes. In particular, the SIAI is explicitly founded on the beliefs that
Superintelligent AI will solve all our problems.
Creating same is (unlike other, much less significant technological developments) so easy that it can be done by a single team within our lifetimes.
That isn't really evidence that people here (currently) believe either of those. You're claiming people here believe things even though they go against some of Eliezer's writing (and I don't remember any cries of "No, Eliezer, you're wrong! Creating AI is easy!", but I might be mistaken), and even though quite a few commenters are telling you nobody here believes that.
It depends what you mean by easy and hard. From previous conversations I expect Mr Wallace is thinking something easy is doable by means of a small group over 20-30 years and hard is a couple of generations of the whole of civilizations work.
Yes, that's how I am using the terms.
