Everything that happened was orchestrated by the mother robot -- which is actually one robot consciousness. It can simultaneously destroy the human race while also nurturing the perfect human to adulthood. The outsider character was the first embryo, put into place to play her part in the girl's development of becoming the new mother to the human race. Basically, daughter passed all of her tests, including choosing her new brother over the outsider. It's all an experiment by the AI, who subjectively looked at its human creators and decided they needed a reboot as a species. its actions were neither malevolent or benevolent. It was just a robot being a robot. The killing of the human race was unemotional, as was the upbringing of the daughter.
