AGI/ASI represents a 'completely artificial emergency' rather than a natural crisis like COVID-19 because any AGI crisis would be created by our decision to build it, not something we're trying to solve, so there is 'no rush' and development should be slowed deliberately rather than accelerated under false urgency
