The author seems afraid that AI would replace and wipe out humans.

1) Is that a bad thing? 2) the author is literally anthropomorphising AI - giving it traits of humans (aggression, desire for conflict, genocide) just because they might look human.

These are not encessary truths and the article leaves them totally unaddressed. There may be valid evidence and support for 1 and 2 being bad/true but since they're not covered the article is just unsubstantiated fearmongering.

The real topic is "how do we ensure our bad traits aren't passed on to AI made in our image".
