The main potential risks of AI for that level of threat is that government, military and intelligence agencies, and big corporations probably with military ties, arms them. And that is not something that will be solved with legislation (for the commoners) and good will. The problem or risk are not AIs there. And no matter what is see in the AI field, what they will have in their hands won’t have restrictions and probably will be far more powerful than what is available for the general public. And without teeth, what they can do? Maybe help to solve or mitigate the real existential risk that is climate change.
