AGI is exceedingly unlikely to happen, so your worry is better spent on other things.

That's not the way that works. You're the one making the positive claim, it's on you to provide evidence to support your claim.

Why is it exceedingly unlikely to happen?
It's an extraordinary claim for which there is little, if any, supporting evidence. It is also a claim that is likely to emerge from one of the oldest and most deeply-rooted human cognitive biases, pareidolia.

It weren't exceedingly unlikely, we'd see some reasonably solid evidence of the possibility that is independent of pareidolia.
