>these are the people who think they are best qualified to prevent an artificial superintelligence from destroying humanity
do they believe that?
they happen to be the ones who can pull the brakes in order to allow someone on earth the chance to prevent it.
if they don't pull the brakes and if humankind is unlucky that superintelligence emerges quickly, then it doesn't matter whether or not anyone on earth can figure out alignment, nobody has the chance to try.
