That’s incorrect, but more importantly it’s off topic. The topic is “what does the complexity of value have to do with the difficulty of alignment”. Barnett AFAIK in this comment is not saying (though he might agree, and maybe he should be taken as saying so implicitly or something) “we have lots of ideas for getting an AI to care about some given values”. Rather he’s saying “if you have a simple pointer to our values, then the complexity of values no longer implies anything about the difficulty of alignment because values effectively aren’t complex anymore”.
