Can alignment realistically be solved under Plan C?

In his recent post , Scott Alexander argues that plans allocating a short amount of time—perhaps a few months—to solving alignment should be taken seriously. He argues that people calling for an indefinite or long pause have insufficient grounds for concluding that alignment of ASI is very difficult and cannot simply be solved by delegating it to AI systems. There's a kafkatrap where if someone expresses hope that alignment is not doomed, they get told that they don't understand the subject, but if they quote widely-acknowledged experts who say alignment isn't doomed, they get accused of "defe

How could AI best help Alzheimer's patients now and in the future?

Alzheimer's is a terrible thing to go through. I was thinking about how we can help Alzheimer's from the care side rather than the disease and cure side. I wonder if a sort of Notebook LM for memories that would be built early on help someone maintain understanding and connection to the world. It seems much better than a chatbot.

Solo submission to Apart's AI Collusion Research Sprint , Oct 2026. The full write-up provides a more thorough explanation. Also check the GitHub repo . TL;DR: Sometimes, entities that were supposed to check or compete with each other align on disregarding the rules for mutual gain: this is called collusion. For AI agents, this could look like agents that are supposed to verify each other’s work letting mistakes pass because it benefits them both, whether or not they say so.

Playing Dance Weekends Without Taking PTO

When I first started playing dance weekends I would fly Friday and Monday, and I quickly realized that if I took two vacation days for each I'd run out of vacation. [1] The typical dance weekend schedule, however, is Friday evening, all day Saturday, and Sunday until early afternoon: if you live near an airport with a lot of direct flights , it's possible to do this without missing any work! The pattern I've used for most dance weekends is: Fly Thursday evening, after work. Work remotely Friday. Play the weekend Friday-Sunday. Fly home Sunday night.

Getting Unstuck in Life (shown with a helpful visual)

Humans often prefer stability, even if a better life is on the other side of some temporary discomfort. Before we get to that, let’s first visualize “stability” as a locally maximum point on a polynomial function, such that changing your environmental conditions or your behaviors, results in less satisfaction in life: Example: you’re relatively happy with your freelance contractor job.
