Some person asked this same question about computers back in the day.

The fact the question has been asked before does not make it any less valuable or worthwhile to ask now, and history is full of the sort of pithy replies like yours masquerading as profound philosophical insights. I’d like to think the question is asked at every invention, every revolution, because we must doubt our own creations lest we blind ourselves to the consequences of our actions.

Nothing is inevitable. Systems can be changed if we decide to do so, and AI is no different. To believe in inevitability is to embrace fatalism.
