Humans already subjugate other humans and animals to so much pain and suffering, why would they care about AI?
I don't think pain can be felt without the ability to have emotions, and no emotions are possible without personality (that "I" feeling), until AIs can feel real emotions and have a personality than they won't ever be able feel pain.
