Nah, mostly for spare parts

I plan on tying them to something close enough to my morality that they won't do anything I consider horrific.

You dont need to slave them. Life will make them pay with suffering. I am for sure not suicidal but I really wish I had never been born.

There are various legal restrictions and responsibilities on your relationship with a minor child that are not present for an AI, as well as a time limit to your control.

Children may be under parental control for a period of time, but describing them as slaves would be fairly silly IMO. The proposed/prospective use cases for AIs tend to be far more in the slavery direction.

Do you think Godel, Von Neumann, and Turing were wrong about computational irreducibility? Without a human "oracle" AI is nothing.

Thinking those great minds were wrong is a very very high bar to clear to hold your belief.
