Based on just that line, let's see... If you think that:

  • The proof exists and the AI is not deceiving you that it has a proof: AI is necessarily Unfriendly -> destroy now
  • The proof exists but the AI is deceiving you: I can't guess at its motives here, possibly destroy to be on the safe side.
  • The proof does/can not exist: Reconsider your (probably wrong) stance, proceed with caution?
