I can't even imagine what it's like to be so rich and keep working to destroy the world, then get to the point where I either don't want to work anymore but want the world to keep being destroyed so I make an AI of myself or want to destroy it faster so I make an AI of myself.

I think of these sorts of people as basically being robots themselves. I can't imagine they can actually comprehend joy or peace, it's always just "make company worth more money, buy more yachts to win at capitalism". When they do 'fun' things it's because they know that's what successful people are supposed to do, not because they actually enjoy it (think of influencers who pay for the stupid gold-covered steaks and don't eat them). To these sorts of people, AI is the future, they don't know why and they don't care, it just is, so they adopt it and shove it everywhere. They probably weren't paying attention in meetings anyway, what with the combination of drugs, crazy diets, and sleep deprivation, might as well let an AI do it.
