Ignoring the obvious that you are using fictional movies to predict the future..  if we dont make skynet, China will.  Which is my point.  We do not live in isolation.  Not sure what else to tell you.  Enjoy the day.  

You're proving why we shouldn't advance AI that far by saying China will make Skynet if America doesn't, and fiction have often served as warnings that we should've taken seriously. Remember 1984? Now we have mass surveillance in Europe and North America. The Handmaid's Tale? Like I said, Roe V Wade was overturned and now women's reproductive rights are at risk again.

And then there's this incident that proves AI is the enemy.

AI can't be trusted with people's lives, which makes advancing AI even worse.

There are absolutely major concerns but only focusing on the negatives like this is really unreasonable. People are using LLMs to do things like help figure out what illness they have based on describing the symptoms and in general there is massive potential for this technology in its application in the medical field. There's also massive potential in improving the lives of disabled people since once robots get advanced enough they'll be able to help take care of people who are bed bound and whatnot.
