It is? Maybe I live in a bubble of some sort, but the only worry I see about AI is how automating too many jobs too quickly will impact society. Personally I'm not worried about the Terminator scenario, both because I don't see AI going in that direction at all, but mainly because we won't be able to regulate what nation states do with AI in terms of defense. That may be a little pessimistic, but we can't even regulate what they do with Nuclear Weapons or who they go to war with, so we'll never be able to regulate what they do with AI.

But that a powerful enough AI(s) might do something unanticipated which is very harmful, and we would have little ability to control it. For now, it's more about how people might abuse AI or how it might disrupt society in ways we haven't predicted. Similar to the negative effects of social media. If the internet gets flooded with fake news that we have a hard time telling apart from the real thing, then it becomes a big problem.
