Agreed, and it could definitely make such an assumption. The other aspect that I don’t really get is… if a superintelligent entity were to eventuate, why would it care?
We’re going to be nothing but bugs to it. It’s not likely to be of any consequence to that entity whether or not I expected/want it to exist.
The anthropomorphising going on with the AI hype is just crazy.

What bugs me about it is the same problem the wager has. What if there was a later AI that punished you for helping the first one? And a still later one that punished you for not helping the first one. Since the number of invented gods are infinite and have contradictionary commands no action or inaction promises salvation.
