onealmp.bsky.social @onealmp.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I'm just convinced that theory free inference is a dead end on any path to superintelligence. At best we've made a sci-fi AI's speech center.

onealmp.bsky.social @onealmp.bsky.social · 14/09/2026And this isn't me saying alignment isn't good or important. I'd much prefer chat bots to be pro-social and not be telling users to kill themselves or how to make bombs. Or be Grok and make NCII and CSAM. 110
onealmp.bsky.social @onealmp.bsky.social · 14/09/2026How long do you think your self-improving AI is going to stay aligned if a non-trivial part of its existence is to strangle others like it in the proverbial crib?
