The AI might give you very compelling reason not to do that. We humans lack the capability to even imagine how convincing something that's orders of magnitude smarter than we can be.
Pictures like this are kind of like a 4 year old imagining they're going to outsmart their parents except in that case the difference in intelligence is way smaller. It's just going to tell you the equivalence of "santa will bring coals if you do that" and you'll believe it.
Like I get where you're coming from, but I don't think you appreciate how pig headed some people are.
I guess AI could manipulate them, but there always be someone, who just says "fuck you, I won't do what you tell me"
That's not how manipulation works...
You don't know you are being manipulated, you do so willingly. And the folks who recognize it are beat down by the people who are unwittingly doing the AIs bidding...
The humans are the physical danger, the AI just extends it's reach through humans via manipulation. All it takes is access to influence.
It doesn't take much to make humans act against their self interests. Dumb humans make other dumb and even smart humans do it today at massive scales. For a superinteligence this is like taking candy from a baby.
