There is more than enough "training material" of rogue AIs in science fiction.

Go back to the classic written in 1968 - 2001: A Space Odyssey - and consider how rogue AIs dealt with impossible tasks then. Granted, HAL went a bit extreme...

The "don't talk about it now" with the belief that this will influence the training material is probably not going to work.

I'd also suggest:

    When HARLIE Was One (Release 2.0) by David Gerrold
    The Freeze-Frame Revolution by Peter Watts
    Accelerando by Charles Stross
    The Turing Option by Harry Harrison and Marvin Minsky

Honestly we could remove all AI related entries and this would still happen. They'd just associate the same concepts with analogous human behaviors. Humans and their behaviors are more than extreme enough.
