I’m worried that “This is not a metaphor” will not be taken correctly. Most people do not communicate in this sort of explicit literal way I think. I expect them to basically interpret it as a metaphor if that is their first instinct, and then just be confused or not even pay attention to “this is not a metaphor”
I like “this is not a metaphor”.
I think referring to Emmett as “former OpenAI CEO” is a stretch? Or, like, I don’t think it passes the onion test well enough.
it does say “interim”
It does in #1 but not #4--I should’ve been clearer which one I was referring to.
(For the context, all of these are entirely AI-generated, and I have not submitted them to MIRI)

And I expect the other half of the audience to not interpret it as a metaphor and not know why anyone would.
