Weird coincidence, but I just read Superintelligence for the first time, and I was struck by the lack of mention of Steve Omohundro (though he does show up in endnote 8). My citation for instrumental convergence would be Omohundro 2008.
I think that most of the citations in Superintelligence are in endnotes. In the endnote that follows the first sentence after the formulation of instrumental convergence thesis, there’s an entire paragraph about Stephen Omohundro’s work on the topic (including citations of Omohundro’s “two pioneering papers on this topic”).
