The current AI does have no way of destroying humanity, because it is made to do only one thing right. We haven't yet made a general AI.
The whole "AI will destroy us" thing is certainly blown out of proportion and fueled by themes like Skynet. It having a reason to let us live doesn't guarantee freedom though. A rogue AI could still just enslave us or use us as energy sources (which is dumb and copied from The Matrix).
Yeah, it doesn't make sense. If we are to die to AI one day, it's more likely due to a bug or an oversight, kinda like humans cause the extinction of many other species on this planet -- which is still quite the stretch.
AI that gains consciousness is as real as zombies
