Our list features people who have divergent views on how AI should be developed, from Shane Legg, a cofounder of Google DeepMind who's working to develop artificial general intelligence, to the researchers Emily M. Bender and Timnit Gebru, the coauthors of the watershed paper "On the Dangers of Stochastic Parrots."
