I already stated some pages back the negative effects of AI; that's when it is harmful.

AI in its current form will likely never be self-conscious, the technology is ultimately not real intelligence.

Your negative effects of AI seem to be a lot of "could happen". Everything can be harmful if you choose to focus on the negative aspect of it. Every form of technology can have many negative aspects to it if you think hard enough about it, but there are good things about them that improves our lives. Im sure there are things we havent even thought about when it comes to AI. Probably not many people saw much good in dynamite when it was first introduced either. It CAN be used for horrible things, but it can also help us in many different ways.

Stuff like deepfake revenge/child porn, workers being laid off en masse, AI scams and misinformation, skyrocketing prices for RAM/electricity/etc, rampant slop content clogging the internet, the devaluation of art, environmental damage, etc aren't what "could happen", they are happening right now. You don't have to "think hard enough" to find the negatives, the applications of AI in its current form are overwhlemingly negative.
