What do the good guys look like? Do they look like a cabal with government sanction that performs research in secret facilities offshore, control the asteroid deflection system (and therefore the space program), and prohibit anyone else from using the most effective mind (and presumably quality-of-life) enhancing techniques?

Basically, should one of the very first thing a Friendly AI does be to wipe out the group of people who succeed in creating the first FAI?
