AI isn't that sharp and clever as humans are but the point is we are not thinking to our potential after the evolution of AI, it was actually created for helpful purposes but ended up by something else. A large population isn't using it for good and helpful purposes.
I think "being a devil" isn't a new thing to hear, whatever Chatgpt responded, it actually saw it from the historic graph because many generations in this world were born as "popular devil's" which we all know. So the concept of being a devil is actually there from generations.
We all do have a devil inside us which generally provoke us to do something which can cause a huge mess for a long extent, sometimes to us and sometimes to someone else but you are actually right by saying that everything resides which us that how we control the situation and respond to it accordingly and wisely.
"AI" do have some merits and demerits, some people use it for good and some use it to create a disturbance and here's what the actual problem arise is the lack of self analysis and good qualities amongst us.
We don't have the skills to analyse, and our desires are to have an easier, carefree life - even though what we do leads in the other direction.
