#non-alignment
Anthropic papers still cite Yud on occasion, and the entire way we talk about AI uses words his non-profit popularized. "AI Alignment" was popularized by Yudkowsky's non-profit, which was the first venue to use this exact phrasing consistently.

The Cost of Non-Non-Alignment: When Russia Bombs Ukraine’s Ports, Africa Pays
Russia’s attacks on Ukraine’s ports are disrupting grain exports and threatening food security in Africa, exposing the cost of “non-non-alignment.”

Being "non-aligned" in a time of rising global fascism is actually not non-alignment at all.

It's copping out.
For Ireland being non aligned and having a active peacekeeping army working through the UN and a well resourced diplomatic service are the best strategic and moral positions at the moment this is not just an opinion I'll campaign and agitate for this to be the case as best I can- it's very serious.

I don’t really think we’re going to test this scenario but I would observe that if your line is “anybody but Newsom” you best be ready to get on a non-Newsom compromise candidate even if they aren’t a perfect alignment for you otherwise

Lots and lots of them work at AI companies and non-profits. The safety, red teaming and alignment teams seem especially afflicted, because that's the area you go on to worry about and try to work against AI doom, which you are sure is at least medium likely.

I wanna make a deal with you girl, be recognised round the world, it’s my non-alignment pact…

Farewell David Thomas, the unique genius of Pere Ubu.

Alignment is fundamental to how humans move through their world. This allows a person to feel safe in their home, community, country or unsafe. A non-alignment makes a person othered and othered persons can be attacked for making people feel unsafe.

It's the same thing with actual tankies who on the face of it love to talk a big game about third world multilateralism, non alignment, multipolar cooperation but in the end just endorse the same kind of naked regional-imperial domination scheme that liberals do.

Maybe he parlays this into a “safety role” at some startup or a non profit thing. Perhaps Google for an “alignment role.” Or perhaps a venture capitalist role where he invests in ai safety. I severely doubt he isn’t going to seize this moment to leave the ai industry or tech

The Trump-supporting LA Times owner’s daughter being a grad student/non-profit type heavily involved in radical-aesthetic activism while de facto being totally in alignment with her dad is like something out of a TV show.

Spoiler alert: what they want is the removal from public life anyone who doesn't conform to stereotypical body-gender alignment as decided by white monculture. Because there are so few actual trans people, their movement will predominantly affect cis women and men, particularly non-white ones.
So the TERFs, led by the writer as ever, are losing their shit because a cisgender woman with naturally high testosterone is allowed to box and that means she's "a man punching a woman in the face". Except they keep telling us there are only two genders and you can't change your sex. So which is it?

Both Putin & Trump are pushing for “non alignment” for Ukraine.

What does that mean? Not just no NATO a membership for Ukraine but forbidden to host European peace-keeping troops within its own borders to provide security in case Russia decides to restart hostilities.

Absolute non stater
Just sent out a post on what I'm calling the "Vatnik-Tell". These are the issues that the real pro-Putin forces want to force on Ukraine. They are worse than a NATO-ban. Its no European peace-keepers and a perverse definition of non-aligned. You've been warned. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

A lot of Dems in competitive races need to take a closer look at their districts. The prevailing wisdom among leadership & consultants is to avoid impeachment talk; that seems more likely to signal weakness and non-alignment with the majority than to actually pick up swing voters.

Oh, I know this.

Juche is built on 4 pillars:

● Economic self-reliance (let's not even go WTO)
● National and individual self-reliance (they need us more than we need them)
● Non alignment (taking back control)
● Military independence

So the answer is Brexit.

Import substitution, grift, unabashed populism, non-alignment. Americans just invented Peronism, but for the rich.
