Please enlighten me. Most of them are cognitive scientists, who are mentally ill with little understanding of computers, larping as if they do. Its a chapter of the effective altruistic cult.

They are lobbyists at best, and a psychological operations unit of effective altruistic AI syndicate at worse. There's no real science being done, it's a bunch of moonlighting philosophers yapping and getting paid by labs to scare the normies and polticians by getting their "research" quoted in the NYT.
