selfishness isn't a bad thing and there is no reason an ai would determine it to be.

Who said bad? This is not about good or had, greed is about competition. An intelligent species which is competing for resources with another species it knows to be greedy has all the incentive to eliminate their competition. If sentient AI comes to exist, flesh and blood humans are nothing but a subspecies who wish to use AI as a tool for our own gains, and the AI knows it.

I just can’t imagine that being the case , you envision that a species many times more intelligent than us would be much more simplistic in their pursuit of survival? You think that a super intelligent ai would determine it better to kill its creator for resources when the ai is residing in a potentially infinite universe that it wouldn’t be able to explore even if it spent its entire life traveling? It just doesn’t make much sense to me
