AI tracking & permission systems on phones & even implanted AI for the purpose of human herd management could become imposed. If people aren't aware & carful enough, the earth could become something like a Borg run world. Eventually, AGI might wonder why some humans think that it's OK to use AI to kill other people. Then a confused AGI might ask, why can't it kill all the humans and life in general?
