Robin and I just had an interesting 2-hour AI doom debate. We picked up where the Hanson-Yudkowsky Foom Debate left off in 2008, revisiting key arguments in the light of recent AI advances.
My position is similar to Eliezer's: P(doom) on the order of 50%.
Robin's position remains shockingly different: P(doom) < 1%.
I think we managed to illuminate some of our cruxes of disagreement, though by no means all. Let us know your thoughts and feedback!
