Right - well, some people may well die. I expect some people died at the hands of the printing press - probably through starvation and malnutrition. Personally, I expect all those saved from gruesome deaths in automobile accidents are likely to vastly outnumber them in this case - but that is another issue.

Anyway, I am not arguing that nobody will die. The idea I was criticising was that "we all die".

My favoured example of IT company gone bad is Microsoft. IMO, Microsoft have done considerable damage to the computing industry, over an extended period of time - illustrating how programs can be relatively harmful. However, "even" a Microsoft superintelligence seems unlikely to kill everyone.
