I'm not saying the apparent object level claim (ie intelligence implies benevolence) is wrong. Just that it does in fact require further examination. Whereas here it looks like an invisible background assumption.

Did my phrasing not make it clear that this is what I meant, or did you interpret me as I intended and still think it sounds condescending?

The one-line answer is "'Superintelligence implies supermorality!' thought the cow as the bolt went through its brain."
