Some biotech contributes to existential risk but others doesn’t. A lot of vaccine technology doesn’t increase existential risk but reduces it because of reduced danger from viruses. Phage therapy is the same for reducing the risk from infectious bacteria.
LessWrong itself is a form of technology that’s intended to lead to existential risk reduction by facillitating a knowledge community to exist that otherwise wouldn’t.
The general idea of CFAR is that social technology they developed like double crux helps people to think more clearly and thus reduce existential risk.
