Musk's position on AI risk is useful because he is contributing his social status and money to the cause.
However, other than being smart, he has no special qualifications in the subject -- he got his ideas from other people.
So, his opinion should not update our beliefs very much.
What about determining how much money investors will spend attempting to develop an AI, or how difficult it would be to coordinate the activities of programmers to create an AI, or how much to trust the people who claim that unfriendly AI is a threat.
