One does not need to be have super-human capabilities to foresee potential risks of the technology one is an expert in.

Yes, the current version of AI is not capable of large scale harm by itself yet, but the plausible trajectory is worth warning about. Gordon Moore did make fairly accurate predictions after all.

You are right. And no one is arguing the contrary

We can all see the risks

The thing is, what do we do about it

Regulating AI will only serve to help the big players and keep others out

That would depend on the specifics of the regulation though.

I do agree that the likelihood of regulatory capture in this arena is very high.
