I hope you’re being sarcastic. Today’s “AI” is as close to being a general intelligence with sentience as a toaster is to a laptop.

You might as well be concerned about revenge for all the electronics you sent to the dump or the software lines you deleted.

Why anyone would think some future sentient AI would concern itself with what you did in the past with your software bots or chat bots??

People really need to get a grip.

This is some version of one of the more ridiculous things that has been thrown up by the nerd new religious movement on LessWrong and similar sites: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roko%27s_basilisk

(It's somewhat unclear to me whether anyone actually believes in this, but some of the more fanatical AI-will-change-everything people _seem_ to more or less accept the premise.)
