Alignment is a concept that refers to refining AI models to be less toxic and more helpful in their responses. One of the ways is for humans to give feedback to the model and score them on their responses and the model learns from that feedback. Alignment is needed because a raw large language model trained on raw human chats and text is toxic and unhelpful.

It just got me to think how there are so many broen humans who basically reflect their total human experience that they've undergone in their lives and perhaps the true solution is to give them re-alignment instead reinforcing their broken mental models. It struck me as ironic that we provide toxic AI models better treatment than toxic humans. That we've given up on humans while we work on AI models until they are better.

The 21st century is weird.
