I find 1 unlikely, 2 almost impossible (or rather, it would imply partial alignment, in which at least you managed to impress Asimov’s Second Law of Robotics into your AGI above all else), and 3 the most likely, but also unstable (what if your 10^8 instances of AGI engineers suddenly achieve a breakthrough after 20 years of work?). So this doesn’t seem particularly satisfying to me.
