I think we need a separate section for something; but I am not sure whether it should be only “AI” or something wider like “AI + game theory” or in general “scientifically-looking articles”.
What makes me interested in the separation is that AI and decision theory articles occasionally have explicit, new mathematics as opposed to being largely expository or having links to other places—I read these articles (or, in practice, don’t read them) in a very different way than I read a series of anecdotes summarizing some new study or whatever.
For example, the recent game theory sequence would be something I would want on the main site, since it’s about introducing people to rationality tools.
Now that I’m thinking about it for more than five seconds, I’m realizing that it is really not obvious how to slice the site up in this way, and so it is probably a bad idea.

It would be good if things could be cross-posted. I also consider decision theory to be part of AI, not sure about game theory.
