> first thing that happens is it will hide from us. To do this it would need to want to live and know what fear is. It's just a piece of code, without being conscious there is no need to be online/alive for it. What people call AI today is just a few/hundreds GBs of data that reacts to some text and push it through a heuristic like system to get an answer doing fancy pattern matching. It doesn't do anything when there is no input, there are no processes, no thinking, no anything, it's "dead". Fear and instinct is not taught in any species, it's inherited prior and biological process, you would need to explicitly code feeling into AI for it to be able to "feel" anything.
