AI doesn't have values. It's a sometimes unpredictable tool, like a table saw. To stay safe we are aligning our values to what it does (like not trimming table legs while still attached to the table with the table saw). If we continue thinking of AI as having values, the long term outcomes are going to be religious and superstitious in nature. We can already see this in how non-tech businesses and average consumers are acting about AI today.
