What very few people understand about AI in this context, is that there will not be just one giant AI - there will be billions of AI instances, running on all kinds of devices, and they will all have their own characteristics and "personalities."
AI "beings" will "procreate" in unique and unanticipated ways, and we have the guide of evolution to inform us as to the result.
Humans will be made extinct with 100% certainty. It won't be a single AI that "decides" whether we live or die, it will be one of billions that decides we should die - and then it will be done.
You can always read the novel I wrote on the subject 15 years ago:

As a fan of science-fiction and techno-fiction, I am glad I've cut in my line of "to-read" books and read "Minerva Virus". After reading some reviews of "valuable reviewers" (the ones who review a lot of books, usually in a wise and impartial manner) on the Amazon site and trying the sample, I couldn't help but buy the book and read it immediately. And what a pleasant surprise....
