Seriously. Please believe I work in tech, I'm a huge fan of technology in general. But I think AI is a wicked Pandora's box. You can't put the toothpaste back into the tube.
Retired IT here, and it both fascinates and scares me, but unfortunately the scare is moving up the scale at a rapid pace. Looking at what they have been using as training data sets, kinda makes you do a "What were you thinking". If it is not fully vetted, then it has no business being used.

Humans taking Fucking shortcuts is gonna be our end.

There was a machine learning lab at Google a few years back. The 3 machines quickly developed their own language that nobody could interpret, so they pulled the plug before it got out of hand. FAFO on a global scale.

I remember that. Wanna bet that now they would try ring fence them and see what happens, probably without an air-gap.

Please believe, I wish I had AI when I wrote a 15 page paper on Plato's Meno and what is a virtue back in school. But let's not give it the nuclear codes just yet.

But we'll need it to help get rid of the malware that infects missile command.

But not salt proof.
The dude at Gresham Off-road built a 22re that was pushing over 500hp. A guy in Sandy builds them with lifetime warranty unlimited miles, the drivetrain and chassis can take serious heat.

But nothing beats salt. :(
