Einstein made predictions about what the universe would look like if there were a maximum speed. Your prediction seems to be that well built ai will not misunderstand its goals

Or a (likely to be built) AI won't even have the ability to compartmentalise it's goals from its knowledge base.

It's not No True Scotsnan to say that no competent researcher would do it that way.
