The "risks" from AI are far more mundane from this AGI taking over the world and extinction level event nonsense.

It's the usual, more power to the few, less power to the workers. Easy manipulation and control of the masses by "subtle" ways such as swamping the media with false divisive narratives (as being done today, but on steroids) and more violent ways such as automatic "police" without qualms or empathy.

The risks we face are from other humans.

This statement is at best naive misdirection. I won't be surprise if people like Altman are just working to increase their own power through regulatory capture.

This is a silicon valley power move. Some Randian heros with monarchic aspirations got some good folks to be their useful idiots.
