The process of ensuring that artificial intelligence systems are aligned with human values and the specific strategic goals of the enterprise.
AI Alignment is also a security matter. An unaligned autonomous agent might conclude that the most efficient way to lower cloud costs is to delete the entire database. Alignment in practice relies on Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF), constitutional AI constraints, and human-in-the-loop approval boundaries.
