  • Willy Wonka. Not too hard to see as a kid, but it was funny too so that masked some of it. Plus the latest theories that try to connect it to Snowpiercer. Granted the latter was likely designed around that idea and it doesn’t come from the first, but if you accept them as connected, that’s a dark world.

    And of course Wizard of Oz. As a kid I saw it one way, read some of the Ozma books and they weren’t too weird. But then I read the real Oz books, and that’s dark.










  • Alignment is short for goal alignment. Some would argue that alignment suggests a need for intelligence or awareness and so LLMs can’t have this problem, but a simple program that seems to be doing what you want it to do as it runs but then does something totally different in the end is also misaligned. Such a program is also much easier to test and debug than AI neural nets.
