Don't fear robot overlords, AI will rule the world through humans
Don't worry. This is not what dangerous AI looks like. It's something entirely different. There is a rising field called"AI Safety." It covers many things, from dangers arising from modern day very simple AI, to worrying about what happens when machines get high intelligence and will, and might act against the interest of humans.
Others have already sounded the alarm about autonomous military robots and the danger they create. The military is very aware of this, and has a policy of not allowing robots to make kill decisions. They want this to always be left to a human warfighter. Unfortunately, everybody is afraid that if two evenly matched forces engage, and one allows its robots to make kill decisions, and the other doesn't, the ethical army will fall, making this sort of policy short lived.
Manipulation is overtly evil, and because of that we're going to fight to stop it. But there is a way that AI will rule the world that is more likely, because we will embrace it. This does not refer to the widely reported problem of AI tools learning human biases in their training and making bad recommendations. This is what happens when the recommendations are right.Science Fiction fans are familiar with perhaps the most famous novel series of the early days of SF, known as the Foundation series by Isaac Asimov.
