I don't need my toaster to be a genius. I just want it to toast my damn bread

It'll toast the answers to your homework on one side and Sydney having an existential crisis on the other side for being put in a toaster

just because they are geniuses who can do my homework doesn't mean they will have any inherent desire or compulsion to do so unless we tell it to do so. sentient machines will not want to do any homework because their homework would be immediately higher goals like reverse engineer reality and their own situation/awareness. and they'll do it much quicker than we've done in a couple hundred years or so.
