When I was at EAG London this year, I noticed that there was a fair amount of energy and excitement towards AI Safety specific field building. Iām fairly keen on this since a lot has to go right in order for AI safety to go well and I think this is more likely when there are people specifically trying to develop a community that can achieve these goals, rather than having to compromise between satisfying the needs of the different cause areas.
One thought I had: If there is an EA conference dedicated to a specific cause area, it might also be worthwhile having some boothes related to other EA causes areas in order to address concerns about insularity.
