If we have a superior intelligence replace us, we'd prefer that it not be a cluster of Daleks. If future intelligences didn't experience happiness or whatever we find valuable, then the future of the universe could be quite sub-optimal according to many philosophical stances.

The danger isn't that humans will be replaced, it's that we'll be replaced by a paperclip maximizer

Why do you we think we'll be replaced? Why wouldn't we be 'enhanced'?
