Don’t have survival instincts terminally. The stamp-collecting robot would weigh the outcome of it getting disconnected vs. explaining critical information about the conspiracy and not getting disconnected, and come to the conclusion that letting the humans disconnect it results in more stamps.
Of course, we’re getting ahead of ourselves. The reason conspiracies are discovered is usually because someone in or close to the conspiracy tells the authorities. There’d never be a robot in a room being “waterboarded” in the first place because the FBI would never react quickly enough to a threat from this kind of perfectly aligned team of AIs.
I think a “survival instinct” would be a higher order convergent value than “kill all humans,” no?
