The primary danger of "AI" lies in the extent to which it has managed to convince people of it's capability to think and reason.

A lot of people clearly have no idea that they are essentially speaking with a glorified randomizer, rather than someone understanding the question.

This is bound to eventually lead to a disaster when someone deluded into trusting the "AI" does some stupidity it suggests without passing it through any reality check.

Or, the AI is plugged into a machine because efficiency (aka the shareholders need even more profits), and it does some stupidity. And they will be deployed carelessly, because that makes money. And people will suffer.
