I have trouble trusting your expert opinion because it is not clear to me that you are an expert in the field, though you claim to be. Google doesn’t point to any of your research in the area, and I can find no mention of your work beyond bitcoin by any (other) AI researchers. Feel free to link to anything corroborating your claims.
I have as much credibility as Eliezer Yudkowsky in that regard, and for the same reason. As I mention in the post you replied to, my work is private and unpublished. None of my work is accessible to the internet, as it should be. I consider it unethical to be publishing AGI research given what is at stake.

That is, not very much. But at least Eliezer Yudkowsky and pals have made an effort to publish arguments for their position, even if they haven’t published in peer-reviewed journals or conferences (except some philosophical “special issue” volumes, IIRC).
Your “Trust me, I’m a computer scientist and I’ve fiddled with OpenCog in my basement but I can’t show you my work because humans not ready for it” gives you even less credibility.

Eliezer published a lot of relevant work, I have seen none from you.
Eliezer has publications in the field of artificial intelligence? Where?
Yudkowsky, Eliezer (2001): Creating Friendly AI 1.0: The Analysis and Design of Benevolent Goal Architectures.
Yudkowsky, Eliezer (2007): Levels of Organization in General Intelligence. In: Artificial General Intelligence, edited by Ben Goertzel and Cassio Pennachin, 389–501.
Hanson,Robin, Yudkowsky, Eliezer (2013): The Hanson-Yudkowsky AI-Foom Debate.

Don’t make me figure this stuff out and publish the safe bits just to embarrass you guys.
