The alarmism around AI is just a marketing spin.
As @pluralistic@mamot.fr wrote: that's "mystical nonsense about spontaneous consciousness arising from applied statistics".
Real problems we face with AI are:
Ghost labor, erosion of the rights of artists, costs of automation, the climate impact of data-centers and the human impact of biased, opaque, incompetent and unfit algorithmic systems.

Capitalism is the paperclip maximizer, don't need AGI for that. AI fears are a tool it uses to achieve maximization.
You clearly don't understand what the paperclip maximiser is. It doesn't just produce a lot of paperclips. It doesn't just kill most people. It's kills everyone and turns the entire planet into paperclips. And if we ignore AI safety by saying 'nOt My JoBs', we're just letting it happen.
Yeah that's what I'm saying, we're turn the planet into big numbers in bank accounts. https://www.antipope.org/charlie/blog-static/2018/01/dude-you-broke-the-future.html
