AGI will just end all carbon life, and then terraform the earth for silicone life.

We're assuming agi won't have any sentimentality towards humanity like we do towards animals.

I barely have any sentimentality toward humans.

It’s a good assumption to make though. Why would it have any sentimentality at all?

Because we're sentimental as a species and we're making agi in our image. I suppose the thing though is that an agi could quickly evolve to see sentimentality as a weakness and silence it with a chorus of other voices in its mind.

Silicone is already outdated

Fine; maybe it’s some amalgamation of biosynthetic and non-organic programmable matter? Either way, in the end, it will be the same - end of organic life.
