Acrylamide, like many things, is known to be causative of cancer at extremely high doses. There is no indication that the levels found in food are harmful; it would be very difficult for a human to eat the levels of acrylamide shown to be harmful.
The list of things carcinogenic at doses two orders of magnitude larger than those found in food is large.
