Awareness barely helps, it's the tragedy of the commons. I can't think of a solution other than regulation. But then if some countries regulate and others don't, you're right back at the tragedy of the commons at the international level.
Reminds me of the Mass Effect games, where AI is essentially outlawed (because they revolted against the humans of course, but I can picture less scifi-ish reasons in the real world). I'm sure they're still allowed to use pathfinding algorithms and such, so they probably defined a level of net negative (to society) AI and just regulated that. Starships for example are manually piloted (surely with intelligent support systems and basic auto pilots) IIRC.
