I personally disagree. I prefer the take described (in a sibling comment) by Lerc.
But I want to note that your line of reasoning seems to be a perfect answer to "if God loves us and is omnipotent, why does God allow suffering?"
.. and I'm not sure I accept that theological line of reasoning either.

Human values vary across time and cultures. I'm pretty sure if people 100 years later look back onto this discussion, they will think you're attaching to old ways. Society will adopt to super-intelligent AI, and nobody will understand why you'd intentionally deprive your loved ones of a better life and prefer to watch them "struggle".
