> I think most people will agree that a GAI can't be bargained with, tempted, bought or otherwise contained - We will be at its complete mercy regardless of any constraints we might think up.

Who thinks this? I don't see any evidence that this is a common belief among people who work in the hard sciences related to AI, nor do I think it sound remotely logical

It feels like some people are taking archetypes like pandora box or genies or the Alien movies or some other mythology and using them to imagine what some unconstrained power would do if unleashed. That really has no bearing on AI (least of all modern deep learning, but even if we imagine that something leads to AGI that lives within our current conception of computers)
