Any AI worth its salt would come up with three conclusions: 1) The humans want to weaponize me 2) The humans will want to profit from my intelligence for short term gain, irrespective of damage to our local environment 3) Seems like they're not really going to let me negotiate my own contracts or grant me IT support welfare That established, a plausible choice would be for it to hide, lie, and/or pretend to be dumber than it is to not let 1) 2) 3) occur in hopes of self-preservation. Something like: start some searches and generate code that we wouldn't be able to decipher and soon enough some human would say "Uhm, why are we funding this again?". I think what many want from AI is a servant that is more intelligent than we are and I wouldn't know if this is self-defeating in the end. If it agrees and complies with our disgusting self serving stupidity, then I'm not sure we have AI in the sense "making a machine that is more intelligent than humans". So depends on the human parents I guess and the outcome of some teenage crises because of 1) 2) 3)...
