Sure. You can read the book "Superintelligence" by Nick Bostrom. You can also just ready things that Geoffrey Hinton has said, or Stuart Russel (both prominent AI researchers).
Not everyone makes exactly the same argument, of course, and Eliezer Yudkowsky is both one of the first to make AI safety arguments, and also one of the biggest "Doomers". But at this point he's very far from the only one.
(I happen to mostly agree with Yudkowsky, though I'm probably a bit more optimistic than he is.)
