It doesn't have its own motivations. It doesn't get distracted, bored, excited, or ambitious. I have always told my students that their biggest concern shouldn't be computers attaining human-like intelligence, but rather, that they as humans become indistinguishable from a computer: storing facts, spending time on problems that will be solved by obvious combinations of previously solved problems, doing research that is derivative or the obvious next step, learning only about a very specific domain without being able to manipulate the underlying raw materials that comprise the domain, hyperfocusing on becoming an expert of the past rather than weighing the importance of imperfect present knowledge.
