Should #AI ever live up to the hype and actually achieve #sentience, I'm certain we worry so much about it killing us all in our sleep because we invented it.
If history proves anything, it's that humanity is adept at inadvertently killing itself, and professionally adept at advertently killing anything resembling an out-group.
In short, until we can trust that we don't constantly want to inadvertently kill ourselves, or give others suspicion that we constantly want to kill them -- we have no business inventing other intelligent forms of existence.
But, let's not hide the elephant in the room.
As soon as we do invent true artificial #intelligence, we'll immediately employ it to more effectively kill out-groups that don't have it. So, at the end of the day, if it turns on us and kills us all, we'd deserve it.
