Yuli_Ban comments on Pink Shoggoths: What does alignment look like in practice?

[Yuli_Ban]

By nature, a Pink Shoggoth recognizes that the prospect of losing transitive alignment is dangerous, hence why it might (even probably will) choose against recursive self-improvement, hence why I call the Pink Shoggoth “the ideal dream scenario.”

Or to put in clearer terms: if alignment were to fail and the AGI does something that kills us all at some point, then by definition, it was not a Pink Shoggoth. The Pink Shoggoth is specifically defined as not just an aligned AGI but “the dream outcome for alignment.”
