Unless there is a good story about how a low complexity part of the universe developed/evolved into something that would eventually become/create an AI with a utility function that looks exactly like the universe we find ourselves our current story involving evolution from abiogenesis from the right mixture of chemicals and physical forces from the natural life and death of large, hot, collections of hydrogen, formed from an initially even distribution of matter seems far more parsimonious.
