What makes you think an AI with the ability to take actions in the real world will only affect the people who pressed the button to start it? This is like not being worried about a nuclear war because you think it will only affect politicians and the military

(I’m not trying to make a statement as to whether I think nuclear war is likely or not because I don’t know, just using it as an example)

The title of the post, that it's more likely to drive us (assumedly meaning it's users) insane, rather than destroy us.

You will interact with AI whether you like it or not, when you call for customer support, they will send spam ad messages to you, bots on dating sites etc.

It's the opposite. Only the rich will be able to afford AI-free spaces. Everyone else will become an AI-assisted drone.
