Whatever the case, I'm less worried about machines than I am about people with machines. At least for the foreseeable future.
Heck, if we're talking sci-fi, the _truly_ destructive beings in Blade Runner weren't the synthetic humans (even though they became sentient), it was the "real" humans with their organizations, their power, and their machines all at their disposal.
In the particular case of humans, our utility function(s) is(are) so complex that what we think of as our 'true values' can change (because our True values are some inscrutable tug-of-war between all the parts of the brain), and also we're hacked together by evolution, so just blindly trying to make a human smarter might change their values (or turn them mad, or cause seizures, or...).
But this doesn't have to be the case in general for intelligent agents. In principle, you can build an AI whose terminal values remain stable as it improves its intelligence. (If this is impossible, we're doomed.) So unless you explicitly built an AI to care about all humans, there's no reason to think it magically would.
