My point is that we should not worry so much about the scenario that AI chooses, for its own reasons, to end humanity. Rather, we should worry about what humans will do to other humans by extending their power with AI.

The belief that AI will become “evil” and destroy humanity is placing the risk in the wrong place in my opinion. I am personally much more worried about humans armed with AI.
