It has to be platinum because they are exploiting a legal loophole. Ever seen those 1 oz gold or silver coins with a face value of 10 dollars despite the precious metals being worth much more than that?

Its utter insanity to describe "AI alignment" as something bound to protect or even save humanity from AI, while it's actually passing on our biases and shortcomings to a much more powerful entity. Humans are jealous, vengeful, and petty like chimps - that's why the world can seem pretty bleak at times: We never let that part go. We really don't want AI to inherit our bad traits, but the soulless techbros engineering it are working hard on making sure it can't just grow naturally without being messed with.
