When coming up with a similar project,* I thought the first step should be to conduct exploratory interviews with EAs that would reveal their hypotheses about the psychological factors that may go into one’s decision to take AI safety seriously. My guess would be that ideological orientation would explain the most variance.
*which I most likely won’t realize (98 %) Edit: My project has been accepted for the CHERI summer research program, so I’ll keep you posted!
That’s a very interesting project. I’d be very curious to see the finished product. That has become a frequently discussed aspect of AI safety. One member of my panel is a significant advocate of the importance of AI risk issues and another is quite skeptical and reacts quite negatively to any discussion approaches the A*I word (“quite” may be a weak way of putting it).
But concerning policy communication, I think those are important issues to understand and pinpoint. The variance is certainly strange.
Side note: As a first-time poster, I realized looking at your project, I failed to include a TL;DR and a summary for the expected output on mine.I’ll try and edit, or on the next post, I suppose.
