I think people who don't think AI will be dangerous are pretty naive. It won't be a terminator scenario, that an AI designed for "good purposes" will "go bad", but that people will build an AI for nefarious purposes.

Most people had no issue fearing nuclear weapons because something like a giant bomb an easily understood threat. AI is new and not well understood, which causes people to fear it because for the wrong reasons. We shouldn't fear it because it could grow outside our control and take over the world like some science fiction movie. We should fear it because of what a person could do with this new tech.
