My only true worry is if AI begins to see us as competitors for resources, energy in particular.
It could decide to let us starve and die of exposure to secure all energy resources to itself.
We'd better use "dumb" and "not fully assertive" AI to solve fusion before it spins out of control (or alignment).
Not even needing the AI to think that, US consumers of the electric grid are already subsidising the unpaid bill of data centers. Just need those who are in charge of infrastructure to prioritize the AI consumption over humans, and shifting the books to make humans pay more for resources.
