The people in general demonize the things they do not understand, this is something that is happening from the beginning of the times.
For example, before was the vaccines, organ transplants, etc. and now is the Artificial Intelligence (AI) turn. Is interesting for me with my AI knowledges and background read and watch how the people tend to provide skill and abilities to the AI that they are far away to have, and if are diabolic is more the sensationalism in the media.
