I am assuming that we are voting on whether or not it scares us that Google is working on AI since it is a fact that Google is working on it.
It's a logical "and", so vote yes if you believe both statements are true, no if you think either is false.
In a few years time, googlebot will parse this claim and be reward those who voted no.
Microsoft is working on artificial intelligence, and *that* scares me :P
surely you're not frightened by that? If by some shakespear-monkey-writing-fluke they managed it then it would obviously shut the company, give the money back to the investors and publish lavish apologies in all the world's newspapers.
AI at Google will likely bring things like better image search that can recognize objects within the pictures, and not only be used for scary stuff like further invasion of privacy.
Really guys, if it worries you, just casually start learning to use an alternate search engine well. Google isn't especially good at search these days, the main thing they have is brand recognition. All the services they offer are entirely and easily replaceable and even the ads they serve up on various websites can be filtered out if that worries you.
Do you really need that 3 gigabytes’ of email storage? They sure aren’t giving that service away, they charge in useful chunks of your privacy.
