We’re going to see a lot of AI policy demands that look like: “Just turn the [jailbreaking/psychosis/sexting kids] switch to OFF.” Those switches do not exist. Building them is alignment, and we don’t currently know how to do it. Best we can do is “less likely.”

Why it worked

Opens with a short, self-contained line that is easy to take in at a glance.
Uses short lines and white space, which makes a long post feel quick to read.
Follows a clear Hook → Context → Context → Landing shape, so the reader always knows where they are.
Ends on a short line that is easy to quote and repeat.
The opening line stands alone, so it reads completely before the post is expanded.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → Context → Context → Landing
Style: Short lines with heavy white space, built to be scanned.
Tone: punchy, corporate
Written for: People building with AI
