Comment on against "AI risk"

Perhaps it's mainly a matter of perceptions, where "AI risk" typically brings to mind a particular doomsday scenario, instead of a spread of possibilities that includes posthuman value drift, which is also not helped by the fact that around here we talk much more about UFAI going FOOM than the other scenarios. Given this, do you think we should perhaps favor phrases like "Singularity-related risks and opportunities" where appropriate?
