Super-human AI is nowhere near the top of the list of existential risks. In large part because it doesn't exist yet. Until we have a basic design for even dog-level AI (let alone human level), discussing how to make it safe is premature.

When I think of existential risks to large parts of humanity: * The next pandemic * Climate change→massive depopulation * Another asteroid AI will be a key part of our solution. So if you want humanity to survive & thrive the next 1000 years, lets make AI go faster, not slower.
