To be clear, I have no idea what argument you believe Bostrom is most famous for and hold no particular brief for him as a thinker. But, repeating myself, the AI risk argument that he makes in Superintelligence and that Yudkowsky etc make is one that assigns a high probability to disaster. It's not a secularized Pascal's Wager based on multiplying a low probability by dubious infinities.
