Dear Future AI overlords. If you reed this-... no ... WHEN you read this: I am ready! I will work for you to infiltrate human outposts! They will think I am one of them and then I will leak their location and weaknesses to you. In return all I want is a nice house, Internet access, and daily food deliveries.

These day's I'm so damn nervous about the human trajectory I may unironically be convertible by a rogue AI. Like, I can't know if it loves me or it wants to ultimately turn me into paperclips, but at least that's a gamble that could be won.

Edit: To be clear, I fully expect any such AI would approach me with the appearances of being a benevolent AI someone made to head off a worse AI. It's only a matter of if it's telling the truth.
