Well it’s one of those things that even if Elon Musk is correct, the cat is already out of the bag. Even we “pause” AI research and development, SOMEONE, China, Russia whoever is going keep researching it in hopes of getting an advantage over the West.

You might be interested in a book I’m currently reading, titled, “The Evil Twins of Technocracy and Transhumanism”, written by Patrick M. Wood.
The book hits on all the topics you listed in your post, I’m reading it right now to get a very basic understanding of the subject along with the potential of AI.
