I think you're using a non-standard definition of 'malicious'.
He isn't. "Desire to do harm to another". This is distinct from callous indifference.
In that case the word arguably can't be applied to people either, as Eliezer pointed out in this post. The only time people actively "desire to harm another" is when (they believe that) they are punishing the other according to what we would call TDT/UDT. Of course, the same motive applies to an AI even one whose terminal goals are indifferent to humans.
Yes, it can. People really are malicious sometimes. That we are biased to attribute malice to enemies even when none is present does not rule out malice existing in people.
That just isn't true. And even if it were the fact that a TDT or UDT agent may do a similar action does not mean that a person is not feeling malice.
Yes, not that they would need to apply that reasoning with humans. You don't need to punish people when you can just consume them as resources.
