Not really - the paper is about ways by which an AGI might become more powerful than humanity (corresponding to premise 3 in Ben's reconstructed version of the SIAI argument). You can combine it with Omohundro-like arguments, and I do briefly mention that connection in the conclusions, but the core content of the paper is an independent and separate issue from AI drives, universal ethics or any such issue.
