I don't think that AI should be restricted, simply because humans might lose jobs. I think that humans should be doing jobs that require human decisions.
That said, I think AI needs to be limited because there are some things that DO REQUIRE a human decision. And that means that probably about 95% of what people think AI should do, it should never be doing. I work with AI. I write code that takes business processes and automates those processes, often using AI. I am not just giving my uninformed opinion; I know the limits of automation (with AI or just "dumb code"). Unlike Mr. Walsh, I do have an informed opinion here. And the limit is, if a human has to make this decision, no matter how simple or how complex the decision is, then you do not let the code make that decision.
An example is, "Should self-driving cars replace truck drivers?". And the answer is no, because truck drivers make a lot of decisions.
We may call AI intelligent, but AI is only as intelligent as we program it to be.
