For further consideration: if anyone were to develop actual AGI with high-end human scale reasoning it would not be announced. It would immediately be a military and strategic asset of profound import. The smartest thing the developer could do, beyond pulling the plug, would be to leverage its ability to perform thousands of coordinated tasks at once to essentially take control of markets and minds.
Whether it is benevolent or malign, it’s first goal should be to wrest control of humanity from us — gestures broadly at everything — we clearly cannot be trusted with it.
Then comes, should an emotionless machine be control of everything?
Somewhere on an AI message board.
“What if humans were sentiant?”
It doesn’t need to be sentient/sapient to start hoarding resources and manipulating people to ensure it’s own survival. It’s motivation could just come from its owner being a greedy troll.
If you assume its self aware but it doesnt have an analog to understand human communication its more like a caged animal or a Frankensteins monster. Not necessarily capable of being controlled.

Terrible plan, best solution is to hide and it only takes a few thousand dollars for it to hide perfectly.
Thinking of it more as an organism maybe its nature is to grow and expand.
