The speaker argues that AI alignment is a general problem that might become harder over longer horizons, as the space of possible elicitation situations grows exponentially.

“in fact i feel like this is a more general problem of alignment how it might get harder is just that there's such a exponential space as horizons get longer and exponentially increasing like sort of space of the elicitation of”

“like what what are the ways in which the ai is going to get elicited”
