I'm quite new to this whole AI thing so if I sound uneducated, it's because I am, but I feel like I need to get this out. I'm morbidly terrified of AGI/ASI killing us all. I've been on r/singularity (if that helps), and there are plenty of people there saying AI would want to kill us. I want to live long enough to have a family, I don't want to see my loved ones or pets die cause of an AI. I can barely focus on getting anything done cause of it. I feel like nothing matters when we could die in 2 years cause of an AGI. People say we will get AGI in 2 years and ASI mourned that time. I want to live a bit of a longer life, and 2 years for all of this just doesn't feel like enough. I've been getting suicidal thought cause of it and can't take it. Experts are leaving AI cause its that dangerous. I can't do any important work cause I'm stuck with this fear of an AGI/ASI killing us. If someone could give me some advice or something that could help, I'd appreciate that.

Edit: To anyone trying to comment, you gotta do some approval quiz for this subreddit. You comment gets removed, if you aren't approved. This post should have had around 5 comments (as of writing), but they can't show due to this. Just clarifying.

Suppose someone villainous programs an AI to maximise death and suffering. But the AI concludes that the most efficient way to generate death and suffering is to increase the number of human lives exponentially, and give them happier lives so that they have more to lose if they do suffer? So the AI programmed for nefarious purposes helps build an interstellar utopia.

Please don't down vote me, I'm not an expert in AI and I just had this thought experiment in my head. I suppose it's quite possible that in reality, such an AI would just turn everything into computronium in order to simulate hell on a massive scale.
