Designing AI Based on Humans

There has been a big progress in developing Artificial Intelligence, but one of the fundamental questions that we should ask ourselves is whether we want to design AI based on humans. There are a lot of sci-fi movies that depict machines to be almost on equal terms as humans. Is this what we want? Artificial Intelligence should be designed from scratch to serve humans, as what would be the purpose to create AI with free will? We want machines to help us in our tasks, but we do not want to create a whole new race of beings. I think that many scientists who work on AI might try too hard to design it based on humans. Like I said, the reason why we would want intelligent machines is to help us with our tasks, not replace us. Of course, if we want to be realistic, we have to admit that AI with free will sounds a bit far-fetched. Possibly, machines could try to imitate free will, but they will never actually possess it. That being said, I do not even see the reason to create machines that would be imitating free will, so that is something that we as a society should think about. We should focus our efforts on creating AI that will be able to help us with many tasks that usually require humans.
