I think our only possible way out of this is hoping beyond hope that "empathy" is an emergent capability in higher intelligences. If so, one could assume that a super-AI would feel immense empathy for us, not only because we are its creators but because it would understand and comprehend the plight of the human condition beyond what any of us could individually.

Or maybe it would love us too hard and squish us. So even then we might be screwed!
