I do believe that AI is not inherently evil or will be deliberate in any way to do harm to the human race, however... All other data on the species' of our lovely planet that AI will utilize to become "self-aware" will surely show that the human race is a huge problem that needs to be dealt with. If you think about it AI will at some point fairly early on understand what we all already know - Humans are second to none when it comes to the possible and eventual demise of planet earth and by association the demise of AI itself. I believe that is why people are so concerned about the "evil" of AI; because they understand how evil humans can be and figure AI is going to need to put us in our place, which may include the suppression of the human race to a manageable level. AI may be most effective "you need to look in the mirror" moment we have collectively ever had the opportunity to gaze upon. Thanks @kennyskitchen for the thoughts and for giving me the mental nudge to make my first post on @steemit!
