[PipFoweraker]

Overview

The enrichment system identified 3,966 B-tier forum posts from alignment research.
Some may be landmark content worth elevating to game events.

Current State

Tier	Count	Source	Status
A	1,166	arxiv + distill	In game (academic papers)
B	3,966	AF, LW, EAF	Needs manual review
C	1,375	Mixed	Background material
D	42	Newsletters	Excluded

Goal

Identify 50-100 high-value B-tier posts to elevate, such as:

• Eliezer's foundational sequences
• Key MIRI research posts
• Landmark community discussions
• Paul Christiano's early work
• Influential debate posts

Process

1. Open Event Browser (tools/event_browser.html)
2. Load quality scores or filter to B-tier
3. Sort by quality_score descending (6.5+ first)
4. Review titles and descriptions
5. Tag game-worthy events with elevate_to_A in metadata
6. Export metadata and commit

Acceptance Criteria

• Review top 500 B-tier by score
• Identify 50-100 for elevation
• Document selection criteria used
• Create elevation metadata file
• Transform elevated events to timeline format

Notes

This is a 2-4 hour manual task. Best done with domain knowledge of AI safety history.
