Most people working in AI do not share this utopian view that is very common on this subreddit.

How is that quantified?

Maybe smartheads from https://www.lesswrong.com/ and corporate/academia AI/machine learning researchers. Not that worrying is not justified, very very justified. Controlling GAI is not possible directly indefinitely, we need another GAI, so recursive problem, or let them goooooooo, which has its own worries like killing humans as leverage in war with between GAIs, by mistake, or something. We need to set out cooperation rules, but more importantly plan how to enforce them, if even possible. I think pacifying rogue states like Russia or Iran will be (or is) an important part of this plan. We want a future where killing humans is not a preferred way to fight a war or resolve conflicts. Or even better future where wars are the past, and we focus on space expansion.

TBF there are a lot more people worrying about the risks of artificial intelligence and how it could literally kill us all if it goes wrong.

I think that we can safely assume that unless there is a revolution in the field of AI, the current paradigms won't be sufficient to create a true AGI that puts us and our jobs at risk.

lol what??? GPT-3, if properly product-ized, could already replace millions of peoples' jobs. Even if no one ever publishes another ML paper, the tech will be diffusing into the economy for the next decade or 3. Stable Diffusion and Midjourney are likely going to massacre the concept art industry in the next few years. The fact is we really don't need AGI for massive societal impact. Narrow AI is more than sufficient.

Assuming that AGI won't be here any time soon is a big mistake.
That's like saying "Hey guys, let's forget about the alignment problem since AGI won't be created for centuries."
