I strongly agree that there is a disproportionate amount of concern for long term risk we can not yet evaluate, while lacking concern for how AI is currently being used.
I think the security issues will be a nightmare. Consider the situation is essentially a system that exhibits unsuspected emergent behaviors, the internal are black box and not understood, and the input is everything that can be described by human language. That is a huge potential attack surface to try to contain with a lot of unknowns.
Finally, I would add there are also substantial societal issues that will begin to emerge that we don't know how they will yet play out. This probably follows immediately after the security issues, but before long term risk scenarios.
I've also put together a rather extensive set of thought explorations that goes deeper societal aspects of both short term and longer term. Would be interested in your thoughts as well.
