Having done a quick search of "control AI dot com", it seems their intent is educate lawmakers & government in order to aid development of a strong regulatory framework around frontier AI development.
Not sure how this is consistent with "One private company gatekeeping access to revolutionary technology"?
> strong regulatory framework around frontier AI development
You have to decode feel-good words into the concrete policy. The EAs believe that the state should prohibit entities not aligned with their philosophy to develop AIs beyond a certain power level.
And what is malicious about that ideology? I think EAs tend to like the smell of their farts way too much, but their views on AI safety don't seem so bad. I think their thoughts on hypothetical super intelligence or AGI are too focused on control (alignment) and should also focus on AI welfare, but that's more a point of disagreement that I doubt they'd try to forbid.
