One of the best case scenarios with superintelligent AI is being treated like a cat - and that is not comforting.

Me: We are superintelligent compared to animals and look at how we treat them.

Them: My cat has a pretty good life. 😸

Me: Cats are the animals we treat best, and we:
1) kidnap them from their families as children
2) forcefully sterilize them for "population control"
3) keep them in solitary confinement for most of every day, unable to leave the house, with no entertainment or company
4) take away all of their freedoms and find it cute when they stare longingly out the window at the world they will never be able to see

Would you want an AI to treat you that way?

Them: . . . . god, you must be awful at parties.
