I was thinking for example Scott Aaronson if you could get him to give a talk. I'd be interested in for example what he would have to say about theoretical computer science being relevant for AI undergoing fast recursive self-improvement. He's also wrote more generally about philosophical issues connecting to computational complexity some of which might be more directly relevant to Friendly AI.
Folk around here talk to Scott reasonably often. In my experience, he hasn't been that interested in the core issues you were talking about. A generic tour of computational complexity theory would seem to go in the same category as other relatively peripheral talks e.g. on quantum computing or neuroimaging technology. You're right that the philosophy and computer science stuff he has been doing recently might naturally lend itself to a more "core" talk.
Any others?
Not that immediately comes to mind, no.
