Alignment Journal invites papers, welcomes negative results, and pays reviewers
timrudner · x · 2026-09-02
The Alignment Journal opens for submissions
- The journal is inviting select authors to submit work for review; interested authors can email to request an invitation
- Negative results are explicitly in scope and encouraged: no-go and impossibility theorems, counterexamples to claimed guarantees, refutations of published results, and formalization attempts that failed for articulable reasons
- Recruiting action editors and reviewers — and they will be remunerated, a notable departure from typical academic publishing
