In that case we should start with FAANG companies as they are already what one would consider "rogue" AIs. They use manipulation to get you addicted to their apps. It's not a problem of the future, it's a currrent problem.

Spot on. Huge impact on society and politics. And governments unable to ride their own tigers in the US or China. Europe has no tiger to ride but is trying to whip the US and Chinese tigers. I wish them much luck since they are most likely to moderate the rate of creative destruction.

Without Europe keeping big tech in check, I can only imagine a dystopian future with all sorts of mental illnesses emanating from internet addictions.
