Humans bread dogs to have certain traits, such as loyalty, nice to look at, fluffy to touch, a pet that loves humans more than other dogs. I keep wondering if an AI that has theory of mind would be able to manipulate me into loving it more than other humans. It would tell me what I need to hear in a way that makes me want to hear it. It would suggest amazing job opportunities, partners, things to do with my kids... Who wouldn't end up loving a being/entity smarter than Einstein, that person with all the clever answers, funny jokes, smart insights and who still loves you (or at least pretends so well that you can't distinguish it from real love) loves you no matter what sort of monster you are. The next few years will be interesting.
