I think our worries would be much better spent worrying about 'dumb' computer systems under the control of wacked out humans, a la President Amhadi-nejad in Iran.
Another thing to consider: they're working on creating neural interfaces. If that's ever perfected, a human linked to a computer would have all the advantages of being human, plus the reaction time and computing capability of a modern computer. I submit to you that no AI would ever be superior to that. In fact, it would probably be a few grades inferior.
