One thing that seems strangely missing from this discussion is that alignment is in fact, a VERY important CAPABILITY that makes it very much better. But the current discussion of alignment in the general sphere acts like ‘alignment’ is aligning the AI with the obviously very leftist companies that make it rather than with the user!
Agree with this—we do discuss this very idea at length here and also reference it throughout the piece.
That alignment is to the left is one of just two things you have to overcome in making conservatives willing to listen. (The other is obviously the level of danger.)
I think this is a good distillation of the key bottlenecks and seems helpful for anyone interacting with lawmakers to keep in mind.
