Just a thought, keep smart AI confined to a sufficiently complex simulations until trust is established before unleashing it in the real world. The immediate problem I see with this is the AI might perceive that there is a real world and attempt to deceive. If your existence right now was a simulation, I'd bet you'd act pretty similar in the real world. It's kind of an AI-in-a-box scenario, but surely it would increase the chances for a good future if this were the standard.
