Where it's at currently?It's harmless in the sense it won't cause malicious intent to anyone. It will cause people to lose their job. Will we ever get to the point AI has the will power to harm others? Potentially, but hopefully not.

Harmless?

Autonomous killer robots already exist and have already been used on the battlefield, possibly since 2021

AI is going to be making the decisions who to kill, or already is

Real or not, food for thought:

These are still instances of human programming, not actions made independently by AI. I know AI has killed plenty but that's because humans programmed it to do those actions or accidental. I'm mainly speaking of someday humans having AI companions and then they go rogue some day. IRobot shit.

This might not be what the OP is specifically referring to. 

Regarding blaming AI for the end of the world, I still would put blame squarely on humans if this happens.
