Anil DashI've been trying to find a name or descriptor for people who I think are looking at "AI" broadly and soberly, with a genuinely objective perspective and information that's not captured by the big tech companies but also fluent in the technology behind it. ( @simon would be the exemplar here.) What would you call this cohort? Because I think it's sort of a community without a name, which limits its impact.
tante@anildash are people ever "genuinely objective"? You probably mean some form of "lack of strong emotions towards AI" but I'd argue that that - given the real impacts and flaws of AI - creates a bit of a false middle ground.
Even though you might not see it as that I would call a lot of them the (neo-)luddites. But I feel like you are looking for something different that is a lot harder to pin down because they can't be structurally critical which kinda limits the target a lot.
I wonder how useful defining that group is though. Is there a neutral position when looking at something actively harming many of the structures defining our world?
