This is a good analysis. I was previously weakly aware of Goertzel’s beliefs on psi/paperclipping, and didn’t know much about his opinions on AI other than that he was working on superhuman AGI but didn’t have as much concern for Friendliness as SIAI. So I suppose my confidence shouldn’t change very much either way. I’m still on the fence on several questions related to Singularitarianism, so I’m trying to get evidence wherever I can find it.
