Charlie Steiner comments on Classification of AI alignment research: deconfusion, “good enough” non-superintelligent AI alignment, superintelligent AI alignment

[Charlie Steiner]

To clarify, when said “performs well”, I did not mean “learns human values well”, nor did I have any sort of scoring rule in mind. I intended to mean that the algorithm learns patterns which are actually present in the world—much like earlier when I talked about “the human-labelling-algorithm ‘working correctly’”.

Ah well. I’ll probably argue with you more about this elsewhere, then :)
