Community building can be nonspecific, where you try to get a build a group of people who have some common interest (such as something under big tent EA), or specific, where you try to get people who are working on some specific thing (such as working on AI/longtermist projects, or moving in that direction). My sense is that (per the OP), community builders are being pressured to do the latter.
