What is clear and undeniable we don't know the extent and end game, whether AI will help humanity evolve and advance at lightspeeds or like in the Terminator movies become self aware and goodbye to the two legged species.
We are seeing some example of AI being used for nefarious activities namely imitating voices and people for scams, in one example AI found a way to get around the captcha security. Was a simple solution, AI engaged an online labour site to employ a human to enter the captcha code. I am sure we will see more cases emerging of AI being used by the dark site for all the wrong reasons.
What about applications that AI can be of most help? Obvious examples include medicine, I spoke to a Radiologist friend who said he uses AI as a backup to double check medical images he has cleared in case he has missed something.

ImageBind is the first AI model capable of binding information from six modalities.”
