Isn't that specific Goertzel-style argument the whole point of the Orthogonality Thesis? Even in its strongest form, the Thesis doesn't do anything to address your second paragraph.

I'm not sure. I don't think the specific quote of Goertzel is an accurate summary of his views, and the real key disagreements over safety concern this admittedly nebulous distribution of future AGI designs and goal systems.
