>As far as a pandemic or nuclear war, though, I'd probably put it on more of the level of a K-T extinction event. Humans are doing some work on asteroid redirection, but I don't think it is a global priority.
I think it's better to frame AI risks in terms of probability. I think the really bad case for humans is full extinction or something worse. What you should be doing is putting a probability distribution over that possibility instead of trying to guess how bad it could be, it's safe to assume it would be maximally bad.
