Why Does Alignment Constitute A Science Problem Rather Than An Engineering Problem?
Alignment constitutes a science problem because people do not know how to solve the alignment issue. The difficulty does not come from lack of resources or from not trying hard enough to solve the problem. People simply do not know how to align advanced artificial intelligence systems. The distinction matters because it means additional engineering effort will not resolve the fundamental gap in knowledge about how to make artificial intelligence safe.
