XiXiDu seemed to place importance on the possibility of "expert systems" that don't count as AGI beating the general intelligence in some area. Since we were discussing risk to humanity, I take this to include the unstated premise that defense could somehow become about as easy as offense if not easier. (Tell us if that seems wrong, Xi.)
