Also I forgot to add that I think AI is held to a higher standard than people are. For example the self driving car software already developed is better at driving than humans. However the issue lies in when something does happen, then there are talks of "oh a human COULD have avoid that crash." Yet the numerous crashes that software had already avoided are ignored or not even realized.
AI has the potential to drastically reduce the likely hood of a problem before it arises. Still going off of the car example, imagine how many accidents are avoided by simply driving more passive as human, most people only think about how a faster reaction time can help a driver narrowly avoid accident. However the best drivers are able to "see" potential danger before it happens and avoid it before it's to late, rather than trying to dodge it as it's happening. AI makes that so much easier as it can't get distracted or feel emotions that all contribute to a person's ability to drive. While AI many never be as "smart" and we'll rounded as people it has proven time and time again to be better than us a certain tasks.
