You don't have to be intelligent to ruin things. Look at Trump.
At least a thinking machine would have a reason for doing what it might do, instead of bumbling along and overshooting any safeguards left. Which given Musk's attitude, Grok would be the first and last safeguard for everything. So yeah, this is worse than Terminator.
