AI killing humanity is a category error

The idea that AI will decide to kill humanity is a profound category error: AI is not a living being primed by billions of years of evolution to fight for survival, but rather math, code, and computers built, owned, used and controlled by people; it has no goals and no wants and will not come alive any more than a toaster will.
