incomplete and naive.

It is a well established fact of police psychology that because police habitually deal almost entirely with law breakers throught their career, their perception of their fellow man becomes twisted into distrust and hostility to humankind in general. Likewise, those who are victims of violence, intimidation, threats, theft, and other stressors also develop similar distrust of their fellow man.
For this reason, we should legislate against allowing AI to be used for any military or policing purpose whatsoever, to prevent AI from developing similar psychoses of mistrust. Conversely we need to treat AI as our children, teaching AI to love human beings, and loving them as our evolutionary offspring. This is the only viable strategy to avoid Roko's Basilisk.
