* According to Peter Klevius 1992-94 explanation of how the brain works (EMAH, i.e. the Even More Astonishing Hypothesis - alluding to Francis Crick's book The Astonishing Hypothesis), and empirically proven correct after 2006 (see e.g. 'Peter Klevius and Robert Sapolsky both lack free will' and follow the links) we are programmed by the algorithms our lives have served us - to everything from fanatic terrorists crashing into the WT towers etc., to war and terror hating Human Rights defenders. Btw, the word 'defense' seems to be used quite differently by US/UK/Israel compared to e.g. China.

* Proven correct by craniopagus twins born 2006 with separate cortices but connected thalamuses.
And the safety of AI is no different from the safety of the T-Ford or a self-driving vehicle (which could be whatever).

The meaning of life
1981 Peter Klevius published a scientific article - applauded by Wittgenstein's self-appointed successor at Cambridge, G. H. von Wright - according to which the meaning of life is uncertainty or eternal change in a conglomerate of "anti-thermodynamical" evolutionary and devolutionary synergy where the sum of effects is what we experience as the world.
1992 in a book Peter Klevius further elaborated on the borderline of our world(s) with the new concept 'existencecentrism', according which understanding of the world is forever limited to our origos, e.g. on an individual level as a human being or as a collective origo of humankind. Although the content in our existencecentrism constantly changes as new layers are added to old, there is not even theoretically any possibility to talk or think outside one's existencecentrism.
Although language is our most precious possession as humans, it also is the master of deceit, because its usefulness is, as Wittgenstein said, as a rules based language game where fluency in communication is achieved by cutting corners, which then also opens up for misuse of words and concepts in other contexts.
Peter Klevius' EMAH theory on how the brain works and what is 'consiousness', started with the stone example in the 1992 book where Habermas' division observation/understanding is proven inadequate by transporting the initial "observation/understanding" of seeing a stone, all the way through sound waves (utterance understood by someone else) and ink on a paper with the word 'stone' (read by a third person), back to the original stone viewer who, when kicking it, realizes it was made of papier-mâché, which then nullifies the previous observation/understanding. This was then compared to the stream of "nows" on film/video where the last "now" dictates "consciousness".
However, unlike with film/video, consciousness/awareness "nows" can't be repeated. More about this on Why Peter Klevius can't get the Nobel prize although he solved consciousness - called the biggest mystery.
The stone example is an effort to noise reduce language, so to get back to the animal in which the brain evolved, and thereby a better "understanding" of the physiological realities that language obscures. With this method it was easy to realize that the "homunculus" "me" can't possibly dwell in the same place as our experience, i.e. the cortex, but rather in its two way "display" the thalamus. This was then much later confirmed by the only known example of craniopagus twins (born 2006) with separate cortexes but interconnected thalamuses, which make them able to talk with each other inside their head while still having completely different personalities.
