Literally any media since the invention of science fiction aritifical intelligence has said the same.

The thing that keeps humanity from destroying everything is that fact that we feel pain. Both emotional and physical pain.

Artificial intelligence will not evovle with that same function therefore it will not prevent itself from causing harm to humanity.

I don't believe LLMs are artificial intelligence, they are simply just "if this, then that."

True artificial intelligence will be able to have new ideas on its own. That will be a bad future for human beings.
