I'm only scared of how much bosses can be convinced to fire workers (even if they rehire later, which has happened a few times already); how self-driving vehicles are being allowed on our public roads and sidewalks when they are not proven safe; how they get used for critical info gathering and treatment in medicine with very little regulation; how they get used to track and surveil us; their uses in war; and of course the impact on the planet.
In a society after capitalism and other hierarchies, I think some amount of AI could be used much more responsibly, consciously, safely, and for the public good.
