Widespread supercomputers also enable careful AI reserachers

Not really; friendly AI is overwhelmingly a philosophical/mathematical/logical problem. As a rough analogy, the ability to produce bigger explosions doesn’t, above a certain very low threshold, make it easier to safely demolish a building. There are probably world-savingly useful things that very careful people could do with huge computing power, but (given wide distribution) these are probably completely outweighed by the danger of uncareful AI.
