I don't completely disagree with you that the risks have not been discussed enough but to me what is much more important is we have absolutely no structures in our society to deal with these risks.

Not only do we not have the structures but we also have no ability to create them. If we did we would have already created them.

Instead we are going to go with the tried and true method we always use:

"What does this button do??" Then push the button and see what happens.

One of the structures we do have is to raise the issue and criticize it through discussion, which is why I often bring this up. A structure of intense and criticial discussion is directly counter to the capitalistic tendencies that have made this software possible. Since almost no one is offering a critical opinion, the people that do already provide some friction and realization against the indiscriminate use of this technology.
