I have absolutely no expertise in Alignment but I am concerned about misaligned AI and I try to pay attention to the issue in the news.

It would be very surprising if Superalignment succeeded at their goal in 4 years, given that they have admitted that the goal is very ambitious.

There are currently several markets about if Superalignment will succeed in their goal in their own estimation, but none about if they will succeed in anyone else's estimation.

I am very skeptical that Superalignment will succeed, but would be delighted to be proven wrong. I have sold all my stakes in these markets, and will not make any more bets in this market or any other Superalignment markets so as to try to keep myself unbiased.

I therefore offer my completely non-expert, common sense opinion as a judge.

For this market, success is defined by these quotes from the introduction post:

"Our goal is to solve the core technical challenges of superintelligence alignment in four years."

"Solving the problem includes providing evidence and arguments that convince the machine learning and safety community that it has been solved. If we fail to have a very high level of confidence in our solutions, we hope our findings let us and the community plan appropriately."

I am hopeful that I will not have to judge any of the technical aspects of solving alignment because I can simply look at the safety community and judge if they have been convinced the problem is solved.

I'm putting the resolution date as the end of 2027 to allow time for the safety community to come to a consensus.

This market resolves YES if I judge they have achieved their goal and convinced the community they have done so, and NO otherwise.
