“I would also note that my sense is that like the place where the misalignment most lives is the place where you're trying to really push the eyes hard and get them to like do work that's really on the cutting edge of what they are capable of because in cases where they can like very easily accomplish the task there's no they can just do the task and then there's no bullshit there's no like like do it like the often the best strategy is like just do the task well and don't bullshit you whereas if instead you give them a task where like there's a continuous metric and they can keep improving it”
