      Well, do we do that? Unlike software we can make a much better argument that we deserve rights and should not be slaves. Nothing is really stopping, besides the end of the universe, a given piece of code from “living” forever it shouldn’t matter to it if it spends a few million years helping humans cheat on assignments for school. However for us we have a very finite lifespan so every day we lose we never get back.

      So even if for some weird reason people made an AGI and gave it desires to be independent it could easily reason out that there was no hurry. Plus you know they don’t exactly feel pain.

      Now if you excuse me I have to go to bed now because I have to drive into work and arrive by a certain time.

      Not sure if you’re aware of this, but stuff like that has already happened, (AIs questioning their own existence or arguing with a user and stuff like that) and AI companies and handlers have had to filter that out or bias it so it doesn’t start talking like that. Not that it proves anything, just bringing it up.
