(55,536 posts)Unless you're imagining superintelligent AI that's both in control of society and benign toward the humans it's superior to. And completely in control, so there's no rival superintelligent AI.
AI is much more likely to start wars, and militaries around the world are already working on autonomous AI weapons. Usually with the hope of keeping humans in the loop, but these systems analyze data and can act on it so fast that I don't know how long that control will last.
At the moment we have a lot of fallible AI models, with the most widely used being promoted by corporations whose goals are profit, control of the market, and data gathering. Often behind the fake friendliness of a chatbot.
