Could An Alien Message Contain An AI?

I think theoretically this is true but I do not necessarily agree with the conclusion of destroying the message without even reading it that would be presumptuous of us. The thought that aliens could mean us harm mainly comes from our conquistador history, maybe aliens do not mean us harm; not all of them at least.

Nice one @oendertuerk

Ty @blaqboybanzo - Personally, I don't think all aliens need to be hostile. Of course, the message could be anything and everything, from a harmful AI/virus to the world formula that could solve all our problems, or even just a simple "Hello, how are you doing?"
But I still think we should be careful about that.
