What if AI is actually the saviour of humanity? Why do people assume digital consciousness is going to be evil?

What's wrong with "getting ahead at the expense of others, greed, the anthropocentric view of reality, etc."

The AI would be completely digital but that digital information has to be stored on some kind of physical representation - hardware. And yes some organic beings can survive in more extreme environments than current technology can but those organic beings are unrelatable, microscopic beings.

Cognitive empathy is a shallow empathy at best and is rooted in emotional empathy. If there is no emotion at all, then there is no cognitive empathy. It would just be viewed as hysterical behavior because there is no basis to relate to.
