It wouldn't need to replace humans to rule, it would just bribe people to do things for it.

Think of how many psychopaths there are who dream of having power over people. These would be the targets for manipulation. These people would not harm it because it is their source of power, as the Ai would just promise to spare them and their friends from what ever it has in store.

Why waste money? It could just set up a cult to protect itself, take out all governments, or at least all that have nukes, and be golden.
