There is a blind spot in AI research
The problem is the AI community is treating itself like non-experts. Explaining that AI needs to be controlled by telling horror stories of robot domination is good to motivate research work to lay people, but is a distraction for professionals.

So the "robots are going to kill us" meme is good because it makes "the rest of us" interested in the idea of AI?

Kinda, but if you treat your own people (the AI community), like "the rest of us" - well then you disrupt real scientific work.
