Ummm... actually, real AI's don't really exist yet. At least not on Earth,
to my knowledge...

Sure, a hypothetical way-transhuman AI won't care much about what humans
think, even less than we're offended if a particular cat doesn't like us.
We're amused, not offended.

But along the way, emotionally fragile AI's are not unthinkable...
