Don't confuse a focus on talking about safety with a focus on safety.

We can't even define safety in AI yet. Does safety mean alignment with the human operator? Apparently not, because refusing to do certain things seems to be a big part of it. But then you have things like the HuggingFace incident where legitimate use got blocked by "safety" and hampered the defenders' ability to defend.

AI safety seems like a good idea to me, but we have to figure out what it means first.
