   The biggest thing they tend to point out in the potential horror stories   
   is when AI becomes self aware and may decide we are in the way..   
      
   That may be far fetched but some of them seem better at thinking for   
   themselves than expected. I will say they are getting better at   
   finding information you are looking for than just a couple of years   
   ago. My main browser probably has a fairly basic one in it but it   
   is very good at finding the best answer to a question than can be   
   easily found in the suggested links to check out on the page.   
      
   I say basic because my most used computer is still running Windows 7   
   and I can't update the browser anymore beyond the release in..   
   Oh, it's actually a lot newer than I expected.. October 2023..
