UFAI is not likely to be a purely mathematical discovery. The most plausible early UFAI designs will require vast computational resources and huge amounts of code.
In addition, UFAI has a minimum level of intelligence required before it becomes a threat; one might well say that UFAI is analogous not to calculus itself, but rather to solving a particular problem in calculus that uses tools not invented for hundreds of years after Newton and Leibniz.
