Hi please help me with this question, please answer me. Thank you so much!

I have some problems, because I am obsessed with the dangers of the A.I., in fact, every day I wake up and think about that they will be better than us in everything, and that they will destroy us, I think that humans are creating our destruction, for example there are companies trying to create a general AI, or also AI that can create other AI's, robots that can perform a backflip, and so on. Each day that I want to do something I feel sad because I think that in the future a machine will do this better (even to be an engineer, I think that engineers will be replaced), if I want to produce music in guitar or in computer I think that a machine can do it better and faster and that in the future this work will be of machines (Search about the AI that did a script for a movie in only seconds, or for the cognitive music of watson and Andres Cepeda), these things have my life very frustrated, I want that you help me to forget and overcome that problem because I'm going crazy. maybe you can help me with some exercises or explanaition. I know that you can say that I need to go with and specialist(as a psychiatrist), but I can't say , hi doctor, I think that the machines will destroy us). please help me.

,

Please please watch these videos, pay attention in the one that say that a superAI can progress hundreds of years in the time that we progress as 1 year and watch all of them please.

Explanation / Answer

Seems like an irrational fear that you possess at the moment. This is a result of a certain thought that once occurred and thereafter it became a pattern of thinking, causing you to repeatedly get stuck in that cycle of thoughts. The evidence may support otherwise and you may subconsciously know that machines cannot replace human element this easily, primarily because machines are our creation and man may not lead to self-destruction in this ruthless manner as is being thought of. Although many new ideas are suggestive of the fact that artificial intelligence may take over the world, like many other thoughts it is a hypothesis in many ways. One reason is that many a times, trial and error leads to an understanding that the cost of a certain implementation is much more than it is likely to benefit. This may reduce it's implementation value & regressed steps may be taken to undo the damage. Also, it is okay to be scared and worry, however it should not be to an extent that it starts interfering with the different domains of your life and your general functioning. If that happens, it is certainly a cause for concern and the distorted thoughts need to be rationalised and altered by a professional therapist. Even if one goes ahead and informs a therapist that you fear something that may sound irrational/paraoid, they aren't likely to judge, they are there to help & make a change.
