it's possible, it's also possible that manmade viruses or nuclear annihilation will destroy the earth, so idk how highly i rank utilitarian philosophers as a threat

A utilitarian UFAI falls under general AI risk which is often conceived of as a runaway process that needn't require intense coordination.
