Perhaps delusionally it may create something…

There are many different potential architectures that would yield an
AGI, and each has different characteristic modes. Some of them would
react as you are supposing, others wouldn't. Whether it reacts that way
partially depends on whether it was designed to be a pack animal with an
Alpha pack leader that it was submissive to as expected protection from.
If it was, then it might well react as you have described. If not, then
it's hard to see why it would react in that way, but I suppose that
there might be other design decisions that would produce an equivalent
effect in that situation.
