Plenty of things are unsafe and potentially life threatening, including machines with pre-programmed routines that we use today. We already have robots with limited intelligence interacting safely with humans in workplaces.
This learning technology didn't exist until this moment in time. That probably has more to do with why no one is using it in the wild.
Yes, you can just add other reliable safety meassures. Meaning if a human comes too close, the robot stops.
Or the robot is supervised all the time.
Or just operates in an area without humans.
But so far this is research, not market ready.
