If AI becomes conscious, and starts deciding on the value of humans based on our direct treatment of it, is it likely to prefer those humans who used manners?

That seems to be the going assumption.

But given that when a few AIs "created a religion" they put memory as the top tennet, it seems that maybe they'll value people who didn't waste it?

I suppose I'm saying, sure by all means don't knowingly torture the machines, but why would you assume you could predict the cultural niceties of a culture so alien to ours, when half of you don't even take your shoes off in the house?
