I await the proper timing and forum in which to elaborate my skepticism that we should focus on trying to design a God to rule us all. Sure, have a contingency plan in case we actually face that problem, but it seems not the most likely or important case to consider.

I find the idea of an AI God rather scary. However, unless private AIs are made illegal or heavily regulated, is there much danger of one AI ruling all the lesser intelligences?
