Distillation of the AI2040 Alignment Roadmap

LessWrong reports a distilled version of the AI2040 alignment roadmap, a very rough draft that sketches how a responsible frontier AI company could act in a so‑called Plan C scenario. The plan separates a macro strategy—four phases ranging from preparation to a safety pause at the Min‑H capability threshold—and a technical safety strategy for aligning powerful models. It assumes a leading AI firm with a one‑to‑twelve month lead willing to take costly actions, yet acknowledges limited resources and that the most likely outcome may still be a misaligned AI takeover. The authors stress the document is an internal research note, not a final, fully vetted plan.
