The paperclipper is a strawman. Paperclippers would be at a powerful evolutionary/competitive disadvantage WRT non-paperclippers.

Even if you don't believe this, I don't see why you would think paperclippers would constitute the majority of all possible AIs. Something that helps only with non-paperclippers would still be very useful.
