    AI will kill us by turning us on each other. It has already been doing it for some time.

      We have been doing that all of recorded history and we are still here. It would take enormous effort or a moderate environment change to kill us all.

        while i dont think our species will be wiped out because of it, it's a mistake to not recognize the difference in efficacy and scale that ai enables.
