If a hypothetical AI were to survive and do so optimally, chances of it becoming hostile are high. It seems hostile creatures tend to fare better.

While AI are certainly influenced by their makers, they need not necessarily evolve under evolutionary/survival conditions. Survival at all costs need not be their prime directive.

I mean, for inferior primates, sure...

This couldn’t happen under world socialism as there would be no armaments.

If we’re all they have to learn from, hostility will probably the way to go.

This is utopia and as nice as that sounds, I don’t credit any economic or political movement capable of giving that to us. If it’s manmade, it is not perfect and therefore, open to exploitation and abuses. And open to create resistance movements and instability. The perfect climate for anything to rise up.

I don’t see why the armed workers would tolerate resistance movements.
