I wouldn't be so quick to discard the idea of the AI persuading us that things are pretty nice the way they are. There are probably strong limits to the persuadability of human beings, so it wouldn't be a disaster. And there is a long tradition of advice regarding the (claimed) wisdom of learning to enjoy life as you find it.
Why do you say these "strong limits" exist? What are they?
I do think that everyone being persuaded to be Bodhisattvas is a pretty good possible future, but I do think there are better futures that might be given up by that path. (immortal cyborg-Bodhisattvas?)
