    There is a solution to this problem of "AI going to kill everyone".

    - Create powerful AI but don't release it and keep it secret.

    - Ask this AI to create some sort of virus that can be delivered to every human in the world without them knowing it and this virus does a fundamental change to the human brain such that humans never ever could even think of hurting other humans.

    - Release this powerful AI to everyone.

    Will that work?

      You're assuming that the AI created solution (virus, cold fusion, etc) won't have unknown effects either due to incompetence or malice.
