  I like this idea, and am also curious about whether they would be able to influence trajectory and what that might look like.

  Would the MO be to directly influence tech & bio leaders? Or indirectly influence them by getting citizens interested and applying pressure?

  I find ethics critical, but unfortunately am not sure how engagement around ethics could be enforced for people who don’t grok the importance. Maybe that’s where governance and treaties come in.
