Thanks for the update ! This seems like very interesting work and important work. READI did a large survey with some questions on attitudes towards existential risks as part of our SCRUB survey work. We haven’t been able to write it up yet because of an embargo from our government partner, but I will reach out when we can because it might be an easy source of content.
Thank you for the heads up! We would love to have more information about general audience attitudes towards existential risk, especially related to AI and other novel tech. Particularly interesting for us would be research into which narratives work best. We’ve done some of this ourselves, but it would be interesting to see if our results match others’. So yes please let us know when you have this available!
We have 580 responses from international data collected during the SCRUB project (though these responses may not all be complete). We collected them in Waves 5&6. You can see the questionnaires used for each wave in the Word files in the linked folder. ‘GCR_’ are the relevant variables.
We also have 1400 domestic (Australian) responses. These are embargoed by our government partner. We can only get access by requesting the data for a paper (which we plan to do eventually). Let us know if you would be interested in collaborating on that. Let me know if you have any questions.
