The core arguments of the superintelligence alignment problem were put forward by Nick Bostrom, Eliezer Yudkowsky, and others.
The takeoff concept is divided into two scenarios—slow takeoff and fast takeoff—first systematically articulated by Eliezer Yudkowsky and later popularized by Nick Bostrom in Superintelligence.
AI researcher Eliezer Yudkowsky has publicly stated that his personal P(doom) estimate exceeds 90%.

LessWrong is a rationalist blogging platform founded by Eliezer Yudkowsky in 2009
The theoretical roots of RSI (Recursive Self-Improvement) can be traced back to the writings of AI safety research pioneer Eliezer Yudkowsky in the early 2000s.
Recursive self-improvement (RSI) is a core risk scenario that has long been a focus of AI safety, first systematically articulated by Eliezer Yudkowsky and others.
The x-risk concept was later further developed by scholars including Eliezer Yudkowsky and Stuart Russell.
Eliezer Yudkowsky holds an extremely pessimistic position, believing that the alignment problem may be theoretically unsolvable and advocating for a global moratorium on frontier AI training.
The AI alignment problem was first systematically raised in the 2000s by Oxford University philosopher Nick Bostrom and Eliezer Yudkowsky of the Machine Intelligence Research Institute (MIRI), initially focusing mainly on risks in superintelligence scenarios.
