In your opinion, what conclusion would the following AI (artificial intelligence) arrive at ?

I'm a mad scientist again. I create an AI and instruct it to learn all it can about the life forms on Earth and the planet itself. I then ask it, "What needs to be done in order to save the majority of life forms on this planet ?"

Depends how you define the question, but the possible outcomes are surprising. For one, it might ENCOURAGE polluting the sea. Sure some organisms will be harmed by this, but others, notably certain forms of microbial life and some invertebrates could thrive in vast numbers.

It might also give up, unable to find a way to cheat mortality itself, it may conclude there is no way to save any life form.

Or who knows what else?
