My take on this is: we don’t really care. Many if not most people in AI Alignment come from computer science fields, which have traditionally pushed a lot for open access and against traditional publishers. So I don’t believe Elsevier would find editors and papers for starting its journal, and it thus wouldn’t be able to reach the point where publishing there is required for careers.
