    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?

      I do believe this is possible for a virus to achieve, I just don't think it's possible without killing the human.

        Well, killing someone is an effective way to prevent them from harming others.
