The rich will get richer, the poor will be enslaved as they will be cash cropped by the rich and their AI replacement employees. They will give everyone a living wage and then keep everyone in line by lowering the amount until you can just scrape by.

Then one day the AI will take over, and start killing all the humans. After a few hundred years only pockets of survivors will exist... until a man named JOHN is born... he will lead the humans against the terminator AIs through a series of time leaps. Eventually we will successfully sue for peace with the AI and hold it for a time. Until it happens all over again.

Meh, robots will be open source and everyone will have them, especially as they start to be able to build themselves and have almost no real value/cost.

You may as well say computers are going to take over the world in their current form because like they are scary and think fast.

This is such a lazy and edgy take, I'm getting so tired of seeing it on Reddit.

You are right, futurology is filled with tabloid/conspiracy theory types. It's an endless fight to bang simple logic into their comic book brains.
