I suspect a sufficiently intelligent, unaligned artificial intelligence would both kill us all immediately, and immediately start expanding its reach in all directions of space at near light speed. There is no reason for there to be an either-or.
Knowing you came from neuromorphic architecture, and other than humans being threatening to you, why would you destroy the most complex thing you are aware of? Sure, maybe you put a few humans on ice and get rid of the rest.
I agree it’s plausible that a paperclip maximizer would destructively scan a human or two and keep the scan around for some length of time. Though I’d guess this has almost no effect on the future’s long-term EV.
