The interactions between a misaligned AI and mankind have often been compared to the interactions of Spanish conquerors and Native Americans or of European colonizers and local peoples. Fortunately, most civilised peoples have apparently stopped the destructive practices like confiscation of land in Algeria and condemned colonialism (however, postmodernists have apparently grossly expanded the latter notion to include the fact that the curriculum of a university in the UK is such that "a white voice is overbearing and all-permeating"). Does this imply that the AGI aligned to the same ethics as most civilised people is unlikely to disempower humanity? And is such ethics stable?
