Answer:

B. Those with moderate knowledge of technology

Explanation:

When we're writing a text or preparing a speech, we need to pay attention to whom our audience will consist of. This will allow us to adjust our language and the information we include so that we are well-understood by the audience.

When writing this article, the author probably had in mind those with moderate knowledge of technology. The article describes a very complex concept, which is why it's not aimed at someone who knows nothing about technology. However, the author put it in layman's terms. This is why we can conclude that it is not intended for developers of AI programs or those with deep knowledge of technology. The effects of human behavior are not the topic of the article, which is why those who study it are not the target audience.

This is why option B is the correct one.
