> Hi! I'm the AGI that's wiping out humanity. You didn't notice. Why would you have noticed?

I was thinking if an evil alien intelligence secretly took over the world, the last 15 years would have looked rather the same.

But truly - why bother "wiping out" humans, if all we need is a little nudge here and there and we'll do it ourselves.

Also I think we're anthropomorphizing a lot and projecting our own negative characteristics on these supposed AGIs - though others have said that far better than I.
