    We are the “creators” of AI, so if it wipes us out, that would be us wiping ourselves out.

    In the end, short of a natural disaster (not climate change), we will be our own doom.

      My thinking is that we will probably wipe ourselves out ourselves through war / conflict / nuclear holocaust before AI ever gets to the point of having any kind of power or influence to affect the planet or humanity as a whole.
