AI is the greatest accelerant of our species demise.

If we ever actually manage to create a artificial general intelligence probably.

Right now I personally think the worst of it is that companies and governments have called our bluff, and figured out that as a whole we don't care enough to do anything about any of it. They can sell our data, track what and where we watch, shove ads in front of our eyeballs 24x7. Take away our right to protect ourselves legally, we'll just click OK and keep going.
