I think that one other message that would carry a lot of weight (particularly with x-risk skeptical politicians in middle powers) is that even if AI proves to be corrigible they will be left out by default. A world in which the U.S. or China has incredibly advanced AI systems is a world in which other powers have no power.

Yes, good point.
Unfortunately, that logic will also push toward the US and China dismissing middle powers’ concerns as motivated by self-interest.
