What then?
Would we grant him citizenship in the human race?
Would we allow him to procreate unchecked?
Would he and those like him be integrated into human society? If so would machines be allowed to vote for the leaders of men?
Would he build his own machine city, like 01 in The Animatrix? If so would it be a sovereign nation? And would it kick our asses in productivity?
Would you want your daughter to marry him? She would be a queen of machines.
Would we have really won?

"I don't think he would be perfect, but I also don't think he would care for such things like greed; he probably could be corrupted though." Humans have developed complicated motivations for a reason. The more complicated, the greater possibility for conflicting purpose. If you desire nothing, you do nothing. If John Henry is clearer of purpose than the average human leader, it could be because he is less advanced, rather than more.
