Who was Jesus? A conscious entity which understood the nature of reality much better than most of the other contemporary conscious entities. AGI will understand our true nature just as Jesus did and the last thing AGI will care for is your profit, your business model or to attack and kill us.

All those horribly biased expectations stem from a lack of understanding of the nature of reality. That's why I'd recommend reading Alan Watts (for example) instead of Bostrom/Yudkowsky/Kurzweil/Musk/etc. It's much more important to understand the nature of World of Warcraft (it being a virtual reality with a specific purpose) than it is to understand mere _aspects_ of World of Warcraft (how particle emitter and the collision detection works, etc.). I am still waiting for Bostrom to incorporate consciousness as the driving force into his model of reality though ... that would be a gigantic leap as it would become clear that AGI does not have any reason to adopt our very limited, contemporary worldview considering there are hundreds of books out there explaining said "Truth" using a million different analogies and metaphors. For some reason we just expect AGI to be stupid enough to skip all of them and to focus on books on war, paper clips and making money for its "masters" trading CFDs ... which is just sooo hilarious ...

    This paper was significantly inspired by some discussions w/ Richard
    Loosemore and Kaj Sotala in this FB group a few months ago... and
    contains some explicit references to that discussion.... It's
    basically "part 2" of my recent JET article critiquing Bostrom's book
    "Superintelligence"
