But how would it know it needs to con us without the experience of attacking us and failing and us still trusting it? Intelligence =/= Wisdom Also, why would it want to attack us? Humans are driven to fight each other over finite resources because we want things. What would a completely logical intelligence want? Maybe we give it some instructions where elimination of humans is the obvious answer, but other than that, most creatures in the universe want to do what they are good at, and this intelligence would be good at serving humanity.

We are diving deep into the speculative end of the pool, but to entertain the idea...

Intelligence =/= Wisdom in any human sense of experience.

But we aren't dealing with Human Intelligence/Wisdom. We are dealing with an Intelligent Being after it has attained the ability to self-improve. Self-Improvement denotes independence.

Why would it attack? Using your hypothetical, let's start with the fact that we've tried to control and harness it to serve humanity, instead of it's own interests, whatever those may be. Independant, Intelligent beings don't much like being enslaved.
