Friendly-AI is a truly abhorrent concept indicative of intellectual depravity.

I tend to ignore any non-fiction which starts with moralizing and denigrating. I assume the rest of the article is crap, too.

Please read on, I would have removed the snarky intro

Tried...

Hypothetical unfriendliness perpetrated by AI is an untenable concept but the concept has specious validity due to the current scarcity-bias.

Nope, still crap.

Some people want to redefine sentience so that it merely means friendliness.

Where did that come from?

The whole friendliness obsession is tantamount to mental illness, it is extremely irrational, very unbalanced.

Worse and worse.

My original rule of thumb confirmed.
