I’m a little skeptical about this survey due to its 17% response rate. I also worry about conflict of interest. AI Impacts is lead by people associated with the rationalist community, and the rationalist community has its inception in trying to figure out ways to convince people of the threat of AGI.
However, I think it’s great that these surveys are being created and support further efforts to make the state of expert opinion on this subject more legible.
Thank you for bringing the data!
