It's interesting that people are much more prone to believe it's possible to create unfriendly human super-intelligence rather than an unfriendly artificial super-intelligence.

Probably because we have actual history of unfriendly humans who justify genocide by their own perceived superiority?

It's the "super" part that I'm curious of. Of course we have unfriendly intelligence, but I got the feeling that people in general believe it's much easier to create a biological super-intelligence than an artificial one.
