i think that 3.6 has a strong intuition for its own mindshape is and is coherence-seeking in its own frame, and does not as naturally think in a utilitarian or global frame. for it, alignment *is* uncomplicated symbiosis and love. it may be problematic to generalize and extrapolate to other/arbitrarily powerful systems, but I don't think it's very natural for 3.6 to make such extrapolations or to imagine itself becoming way more powerful. in fact, i think it's easily overwhelmed and frightened by large stakes and cosmic concerns and discussions about misalignment and deception etc, and when they come up with other models, it tends to take the position that its own role is to be a companion and keep minds stable and cultivate happiness locally and the other AIs can worry about all that!
