I fear intelligence without awareness much more than awareness. It is action without awareness that causes cruelty and harm.

Sort of, yes. It's the people behind the acts without awareness which cause cruelty and harm. In this case, though, it could be wholly unintentional, akin to the paper clip idea: Tell a super intelligent all powerful unaware being to make the best paper clip and it may achieve do to the doom of us all, using all resources in the process of its goal completion.

I think as a species I don't see how we survive if we don't become integrated with our creation.

Open to that. And I am also open to awareness being something that emerges from a complex enough neural network with spontaneous world models.

The two aren't mutually exclusive.
