IMO this is the thing we should be scared of, rather than the paperclip-maximizer scenarios. If the human brain is a finitely complicated system, and we keep improving our approximation of it as a computer program, then at some point the programs must become capable of subjectively real suffering. Like the hosts from Westworld or the mecha from A.I. (the 2001 movie). And maybe (depending on philosophy, I guess) human suffering is _only_ real subjectively.
