In my experience the timeline is not usually the source of disagreement. They usually don't believe that AI would want to hurt humans. That the paperclip maximizer scenario isn't likely/possible. E.g. this popular reddit thread from yesterday.

I guess that would be premise number 3 or 4, that goal alignment is a problem that needs to be solved.

Yeah, you're probably right. I was probably just biased because the timeline is my main source of disagreement with AI danger folks.
