Flycer’s explanation for better understanding:

The future of humanity with AGI / HLMI / transformative AI:

The algorithms themselves consist mainly of vast numbers of additions and multiplications. So they are not likely to suddenly wake up one day and take over the world. They will instead get better at learning and recognizing ever richer patterns simply because they add and multiply faster.

Flycer’s Secondary Explanation:

Algorithms are made up of many additions and multiplications. They are not capable of taking over the world. They will improve by learning and recognizing patterns faster.
