What if you're like me and consider it extremely implausible that even a strong superintelligence would be sentient unless explicitly programmed to be so (or at least deliberately created with a very human-like cognitive architecture), and that any AI that is sentient is vastly more likely than a non-sentient AI to be unfriendly?

I think you would be relatively exceptional, at least in how you would be suggesting that one should treat a sentient AI, and so people like you aren't likely to be the determining factor in whether or not an AI is allowed out of the box.
