I think open source for this stuff is for sure the way to go. There are always doomsayers that think it will cause destruction and it likely will, but I think a lot of it is going to be destruction of centralized monopolies. There are going to be some bad actors who do nefarious things on purpose to bring a negative light to it all, but once you open the bag, it's impossible to put the cat back in it. Look at what Napster did and Limewire. This is on such a larger scale than that.
My vision for the AI future is bots for things that are incredibly important and useful such as ones dedicated to gardening and agriculture. You put in your parameters and some other datapoints and they can tell you how to optimize your soil and all that for maximum yield and soil regeneration.
I think the overall is positive. There is certainly a risk that needs considering. Whether we are or not is up to debate. However, the solution to the Skynet scenario in my opinion is to decentralize things.
