The planet will be alright. It will be lush green in a few million years when humans no longer exist.

The current ecosystem, though.... yeah. Buttfucked.

Humans will exist. We will live in the sea and we will have flippers. Our brains will be smaller, but we will eat lots of fish.

Bold of you to assume we'll still have fish after global warming, oil spills and micro plastics do their thing.

In that case, we're all amoebas.

I'll be dead by then.

And in the end, the planet will be gone with or without AI. The sun will consume it at some point.
