The biggest problem with "responsible AI" is that most of the people pushing the idea are extremist Progressives. So "responsible" comes to mean a sort of gleichschaltung, where AI is forced into compliance with the anti-humanist Interahamwe morality of the Progressive cult.
It may be helpful in the sense of reminding some readers that the general public has a strongly _negative_ level of trust in the social faction who control the AI companies. While we outsider plebs share the legitimate concerns over catastrophic outcomes, we simply do not trust these people to do anything remotely responsible. Rather we expect the premise of safety to be used merely as justification for further gleichschaltung. All the while existential risk remaining unabated, and perhaps even worsened by said efforts.
I don't think there's much of that here? These seem to pretty straightforwardly be dealing with existential or catastrophic risk. I don't see much about making sure AIs aren't racist in these RSPs.
