Don't be like Elon Musk. You have little to fear from AI. Here's [Rodney Brooks], former director of the [MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIT_Computer_Science_and_Artificial_Intelligence_Laboratory]:

For about thirty years we have known the full “wiring diagram” of the
302 neurons in the worm ''[C. elegans|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caenorhabditis_elegans]'', along with the 7,000 connections
between them. This has been incredibly useful for [understanding how|https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/c-elegans-connectome/]
behavior and neurons are linked. But it has been a thirty years study
with hundreds of people involved, all trying to understand just 302
neurons. And according to the [OpenWorm|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenWorm]
project trying to simulate C. elegans bottom up, they are not yet half
way there. To simulate a human brain with 100 billion neurons and a
vast number of connections is quite a way off. So if you are going to
rely on the Singularity to upload yourself to a brain simulation I would
try to hold off on dying for another couple of centuries.
