Why what labs say about safety is a strategic signal, not a statement of values — and what that means for regulation.
In conventional security, hardening a system makes it harder to attack. You patch vulnerabilities, reduce attack surface, and defence moves in lockstep with robustness. AI alignment breaks this assumption.
The pursuit of AI supremacy has reached an inflection point where fundamental physics, rather than algorithmic ingenuity alone, dictates competitive advantage.
