I would have said 30 years, and I thought I was the optimist :) Anyway I hope you're right and I'm wrong!

That's not a thing to hope for. We haven't solved the value alignment problem, so the longer until we have human or better-than-human AI, the better.

Theory - does empathy rise with intelligence?
There's no reason to think it does, and plenty of reason to think it shouldn't. We have a fairly good reason of why humans have empathy; it has to do with our evolution as a social species.
On the other hand, the longer it takes to find general AI, the more powerful hardware will be when it is found.
Compared to researchers in the field, even your prediction is very optimistic.
Can you provide references ? I'd like to know what researchers think about it.
