The truly dangerous part is that religious fanatics may blow up the world before
sane people get a chance to evolve AI. Almost as scary as fascist fear mongers
who want to outlaw AI research are the wacko fundamentalists of the Middle East
who actually believe some "messiah" is going to intervene in human events. You
may not want to eliminate homicidal fundies, but you can bet they'd have no
compunction about eliminating you. As I see it, AI will want to be friendly to
sane humans, and death to homicidal fundies.
