On average, they grow up to be average people. They generally don’t grow up to be Genghis Khan or a James Bond villain, which is what the UFAI scenario predicts. FAI only needs to produce AIs that are as good as the average person, however bad that is in average terms.
The topic is intelligence. Some people have superhuman (well, more than 99.99% of humans) intelligence, and we are generally not afraid of them. We expect them to have ascended to the higher reaches of the Kohlberg hierarchy.
There doesn’t seem to be a problem of Unfriendly Natural Intelligence. We don’t kill off smart people on the basis that they might be a threat. We don’t refuse people education on the grounds that we don’t know what they will do with all that dangerous knowledge. (There may have been societies that worked that way, but they don’t seem to be around any more).

How dangerous would an arbitrarily selected average person be to the rest of us if given significantly superhuman power?

Agreed with all of this.
