Alignment with whom?

>>PeterS+(OP)
Last I heard, the concept of AI-alignment was pre-paradigmatic.

This means that we're not ready to answer "with whom", because we don't know what "aligned" even means.

Anyone or anything at all is probably the first steps, which we still don't know how to do - even conceptually. But the first real target would be alignment with the creator of the AI, and the goals an values they set.

That is: Alignment with humanity/society as a whole is even further away. And might even be considered out-of-scope for AI research: ensuring that the AI creator (persons/organization) is aligned with society might be considered to be in the political domain.
