I think this metastrategy classification is overly simplified to the degree that I’m not sure it is net helpful. I don’t see how Hendrycks’ “Leviathan safety”, Drexler’s Open Agency Model, Davidad’s OAA, Bengio’s “AI pure scientist” and governance proposals (see https://slideslive.com/39014230/towards-quantitative-safety-guarantees-and-alignment), Kaufmann and Leventov’s Gaia Network, AI Objectives Institute’s agenda (and related Collective Intelligence Project’s), Conjecture’s CoEms, OpenAI’s “AI alignment scientist” agenda, and Critch’s h/acc (and related janus et al.’s Cyborgism) straightforwardly lend on this classification, at least not without losing some important nuance.
Furthermore, there is also the missing dimension of [technical strategy, organisational strategy, governance and political strategy] that could perhaps recombine to some degree.
Finally, in the spirit of “passing ideological Turing test” and “describing, not persuading” norms, it would be nice I think to include the criticism of the “conservative strategy” to the same level of fidelity that other metastrategies are criticised here, even if you or others discussed that in some other posts.
For people who (like me immediately after reading this reply) are still confused about the meaning of “humane/acc”, the header photo of Critch’s X profile is reasonably informative

Can you link to what “h/acc” is about/stands for?
