Actually, no, the folks in charge of SETI have no more insight into the possibility of contact being made than any of us. In order to have more insight they would need to know that there was something out there to contact. Conspiracy theories aside, there is no proof that there is anything out there. the SETI scientists don't have a clue whether contact will ever be made and neither do we.

Confirmation bias is real; I can find any number of articles that say so.
