That’s actually the reason why I put the disclaimer on, since it’s definitely annoying for some people but also extremely helpful for people who do AI policy, foreign affairs, and nuclear risk analysis. I understand that the Trump title might repel some people from the forum, but the post is pretty unambiguously for professional purposes and not for political discussion. I don’t expect it to be on the front page for more than 12 hours anyway.
Ideally I’d put it on EAforum since this is mainly a rationalist forum not an AI policy forum, but there’s some serious problems with that for a variety of reasons. I can trust the forecasting/policy community on Lesswrong the way I can’t trust the people on EAforum. Also, it might be AI policy but I’m definitely not putting it on alignment forum, for exactly the reasons you’ve stated above.
