In a hypothetical post-singularity scenario where the vast majority of remaining habitat zones are administered by (or with the assistance of) a superintelligent AI for the purposes of ecosystem preservation/optimisation, do the animals in them still qualify as 'wild'? I assume yes but it's worth clarifying.
