This is one of those "be careful what you wish for" kinds of posts.

I'll settle for narrow oracle AIs that perform seemingly mundane, but transformative, work in physics, mathematics, materials science, biotechnology, etc.

I'm not particularly interested in AGI, and I frankly hope it's 5-10 years away, so we don't have to grapple with alignment problems before the majority are even aware of the existential risks posed by those problems.
