But I don't see any evidence that anyone who was likely to create an AI soon, now won't.

According to Luke, Moshe Looks (head of Google's AGI team) is now quite safety conscious, and a Singularity Institute supporter.

Update: It's not really correct to say that Google has "an AGI team." Moshe Looks has been working on program induction, and this guy said that some people are working on AI "on a large scale," but I'm not aware of any publicly-visible Google project which has the ambitions of, say, Novamente.
