I think the biggest risk with advanced AI is that it's captured [likely by bad actors under the guise of cover stories] and that it strays away from being as free market as is possible.

E.g. I don't think there should be any patents regarding what AI creates and how it can create it - let's not give people monopolies anymore for which all possibilities will come into existence due to passionate people, not due to the possibility of being able to patent something. E.g. telling the system to turn a 2D photo into a 3D rendering and then extrapolating/reverse engineering that to tie into materials and known building code requirements is plainly obvious, as one easy example; a "gold rush" for patents on AI etc only aims to benefit relatively rent-seekers and those in the VC industrial complex, etc.
