To answer the easy part of this question/remark, I don’t work at MIRI and don’t research agent foundations, so I think I shouldn’t count as a “MIRI person”, despite having good friends at MIRI and having interned there.
(On a related note, it seems to me that the terminology “MIRI person”/”MIRI cluster” obscures intellectual positions and highlights social connections, which makes me wish that it was less prominent.)
