Really enjoyed this! Two other topics we talked through that were of especially fun/interesting:
-- Fuzziness level of AI issues: data centers are the only concrete, present-tense issue that's landed w/the public. job loss is hypothetical, doom is elite discourse, etc.
-- Ways in which asking people OEs about what they're worried about vs a list elicits similar results, but different enough to tell us real things
There's a lot more! But those are in my head rn
I'll say it: P(doom) is bullshit.
