to build an AI which is smart for some reason you can understand (a prerequisite to being either safe or friendly) before we accidentally build an AI which is smart for some reason we can’t understand (which is therefore likely to be unfriendly if you believe the SIAI).
Entirely agreed, but to nitpick, an AI that’s smart for some reason you understand is no more likely to be Friendly if you don’t try to make it Friendly — it just allows you to try with a decent hope of success.
