My theory is not that AI will take over because it will outsmart us but because it is sooooo stupid that it will mess everything up to the point that we can't recover. I was texting yesterday about a "preemie" baby. autocorrect changed it to a "creamy" baby. You can't tell me that's intelligent. But things like that are enough to mess up the most important instructions. Sitting at traffic lights for 2 minutes when you can't see another car in any direction... That's how AI will destroy civilization.
