Answer 2

If according to GOST, look for a technical analyst who can write such documents (I give a tip - they usually work in large integrators, but you can also find freelance work)
Depending on the degree of formalism, you can save up a typical document in a week, or you can dig for a couple of months. In any case, the topic is very large and this issue cannot be covered in a couple of paragraphs.
If conceptually, imho the main risk of development is the overspending of resources (time and / or money), including the limiting option: all resources have run out, but there is no product.
Accordingly, this can be described for reasons (incorrect assessment of the task, insufficient expertise within the team, etc. etc.).
If the product is something of value in terms of algorithms, you can add risks of leakage to competitors.
If the product is something of value in terms of content - similarly, these risks can be added.
In general, it is difficult to advise in absentia, even in textbooks one of the ways to compile a list of risks is brainstorming)

Read about evaluating a business idea.
