A specific risk I am worried about today is using AI to power and make impactful decisions in high-risk infrastructure that people rely on. I do not want my power company making decisions about me based on a large language model that regularly gets things wrong. Not without significant controls in place, explainability/audibility, and the ability quickly reverse any bad decision. Replace "power company" with the numerous things we all rely on today and it freaks me out.
People are jumping too quickly to deeply integrate this tech with everyday things, and while that's great for many use cases, it's not so great for others.
You won't find the likes of Yudkowsky talking about this because they'd rather go on about their fan fiction than actually work to prevent real problems we may face soon. The fact that they've tricked some really smart people into going along with their shenanigans is extremely disappointing.
