Which do you think is more likely: That you will die of old age, or of unfriendly-AI? (Serious question, genuinely curious.)

I have lots of uncertainty around these sorts of question, especially considering the timeline-dependency and the how-likely-are-MIRI(and others)-to-succed-at-avoiding-UFAI. Suffice to say that it's not an obvious win for 'old age', (which for me is hopefully >50 years away).
