Going a bit meta, the fact that this post seems to receive majority agreement makes me question the degree to which the consensus against it is real (as supposed to a signaling equilibrium). And I also want to mention that I figured from the title that this was about AI boxing, and it’s possible that others haven’t clicked on it because AI boxing doesn’t seem that interesting.
It’s a great title for what the post says! And it drew my interest immediately.
If what you want is a clickbait title, “Break Glass in Case of Doom”, “10 reasons why doom is not inevitable”, “The Doom-Averting Secret that Big AI Alignment Doesn’t Want You to Know About”, etc… Although those are all old-people clickbait. Modern clickbait probably works differently: “This fashionable teenage influencer wants to use the power of TikTok to save the world?!”
I would have probably called it something like “The Case for the Social Approach to AI Safety”, which would give away the punchline. Maybe “What can actually/still/[] be done do if alignment is doomed”

I’m shit at titles. How do I do the title without giving away the punchline?
