True, I would say that there's multiple issues dealing with AI that are more pressing:
These aren't all of them. One thing I've noticed, however, is that these aren't really AI-specific issues - these are all issues caused by automation and lack of regulation. This lack of proactive regulation is also very likely a failing of our currently neoliberal government systems.
I think that is why so many AI hype-mongers draw attention towards A(G)I safety, because they don't want attention drawn to the actual danger which is automation safety in general.
