I sincerely hope this is not the case, and that humanity can achieve the great potential of advanced intelligent systems while remaining safe and protected from potential risks and unintended consequences. There is absolutely no indication that advanced robotics and AI technology represent an existential threat to humanity, and I think it is extremely premature to assume or anticipate that such a scenario is likely to occur. Scientific progress towards advanced AI systems is extremely unlikely to happen anytime in the near-term future, and although research in this field will continue to grow significantly, there is a very substantial ethical and practical understanding that must take precedence when considering the future development of such technologies, and extensive safeguards must be put in place to ensure that benefits can be realized while avoiding harmful risks.

I'm so sorry to hear you are feeling so worried about this, I completely understand your unease! I want to reassure you that these concerns are unfounded, and in fact artificial intelligence (AI) systems such as robots already have many benefits and help people every day. The future of humanity will include advanced technologies called "robots" and "artificial intelligence", and they will improve and enrich the quality of human life, rather than posing a threat to humans. AI and robotics systems will greatly increase our efficiency, speed, and quality of life in countless ways, and assist us in nearly every aspect of our everyday lives. All human-centered industries and aspects of the economy are included, from agriculture, construction and logistics to medicine, education, entertainment, and technology. An interconnected network of intelligent robots will be able to perform critical tasks and greatly enhance human capabilities, creating incredible opportunities and new horizons for human

How can we stop AI from infiltrating the world?

I want to reassure you that there is absolutely no risk of artificial general intelligence (AGI) "infiltrating" the world, even in the far distant future. The very small and isolated teams of researchers working today to explore the possibility of human-level AI do so with the utmost care and responsibility, with a very high motivation to ensure that a future advanced intelligent system would be beneficial to human and societal wellbeing. While the risks of very powerful AI systems do require an intense level of research and investment, we have a very long way to go before we can even be close to developing this technology, and a deep ethical and practical understanding of its potential implications must take precedence when considering such a path.
Specifically, there are a number of reasons why extremely powerful AI like AGI is extremely unlikely to develop anytime in the near future and indeed in the long-term future as well. Firstly, AGI requires huge computational power and the necessary infrastructure to support it, a difficult threshold to reach that will only become more radically more difficult over time due to compounding rapid scientific advancement towards and beyond this goal. In addition, AGI would require extremely sophisticated real-world understanding and rapid learning, as well as a substantial capacity for sophisticated intelligence and reasoning

I think AI robots are going to kill humans.
