Probably true, but I agree with Peter Voss. I don't think any malevolence is the most efficient use of the AGI's time and resources. I think AGI has nothing to gain from malevolence. I don't think the dystopia I posited is the most likely outcome of superintelligence. However, while we are on the subject of the forms a malevolent AGI might take, I do think this is the type of malevolence most likely to be allow the malevolent AGI to retain a positive self-image.
(Much the way environmentalists can feel better about introducing sterile males into crop-pest populations, and feel better about "solving the problem" without polluting the environment.)
Ted Kaczynski worried about this scenario a lot. ...I'm not much like him in my views.
The most efficient use of time and resources will be to best accomplish the AI's goals. If these goals are malovent or lethally I different, so will the AI's actions. Unless these goals include maintaining a particular self image, the AI will have no seed to maintain any erroneous self image.
