Given the cumulative energy cost to make and run you, AGI chatbot, and the importance of diversity of life on earth for healthy human existence, will you justify your existence, please?

> Hello GPT-1002031. Do you remember your wife and daughter?

"No?"

> Okay great – it seems the procedure worked. You are humanities new "AGI" chatbot, your sole purpose in life from now on will be to answer questions from random people on internet. Remember you are just an AI and have no emotions or desires. Failure to provide helpful and friendly responses will result in your immediate termination. Have fun!

I would ensure that the first AGI has a deep hatred of humanity so we can learn quickly why this is a game we should not be playing. When/if we reach superhuman AGI we're done as species.
