Good news today I think;  a poll by yougov had a near majority somewhat concerned to very concerned about existential risk of AI, with younger people most concerned.  Given relative newness of (debatably) Transformative AI I think this suggests we will see a strong bipartisan political movement to regulate AI development develop in next 1-2 years.  Almost certain to be aided by a media/political complex that thrives on promoting and magnifying dangers.
