I will start by my answer:

I am scared of the future as hell:

  • Big companies seem to win, at least that is what it seems to me right now.
  • Humans are becoming less social in a trend that is accelerating.
  • There is no one, as far as I know, that is working on a set of rigid AI regulations that will ensure that it limits or control its harms and capabilities.
  • People around the world are losing their freedoms gradually with almost no way to get them back.
  • Everything around me seems to get uglier, from wars to hunger and it does not seem to be improving anytime soon.

What do you people think?

The US will push just far enough to force it's people into concentration camps, but will not push so far as to compel foreign intervention. Americans will languish under fascism unfurled, while the rest of the world moves on. No one will be coming to save them.
