And what reason do you have for assigning a high probability to an unfriendly AI coming into existence with Eliezer not involved in its creation?

;)

Edit: I meant what reason do you (nic12000) have? Not you (RobinZ). Sorry for the confusion.

I have not assigned a high probability to that outcome, but I would not find it surprising if someone else has assigned a probability as high as 95% - my set of data is small. On the other hand, time travel at all is such a flagrant violation of known physics that it seems positively ludicrous that it should be assigned a similarly high probability.

Edit: Of course, evidence for that 95%+ would be appreciated.
