Well, we have a consensus here - the purpose the SAI was created for will dictate how it sees and feels the world, thus changing his very nature.

So, we would have different kinds of AIs based on what job it was intended to perform.

We have also the fact that, the AIs created by humans would be more similar to us in nature and behavior than that created by other AIs.

This remembers me of the old (and awesome PC game) "A mind forever Voyaging", from Infocom, where the player is an AI that, by being created, growed through a simulated xperience, doesnt know is an AI at all - it thinks its a human, cause the simulated experience is a mimic of real life.

Sorry.. must go now... later I continue the chat...
