Yep, it's always a possibility, but it's better to reduce the chance any way we can. If the US banning it reduces the risk from 100% to 50%, that's fantastic.
I also don't think it's that likely that a leader would take those odds, if they understand the risk fully. The worry is that they won't understand or believe the risk, so that's where we should attack the problem, in my opinion--by putting out as much good information on AI risk, and combating misinformation, as best we can.
