I’ve been following the ongoing debate around Yudkowsky and AI alignment, and I find it fascinating how much still depends on whether ethics can only be imposed externally or might actually emerge from within an intelligent system.Recently I read a short book that really shifted my perspective — TAOSHIDŌ The Loop of Ethical Alignment It treats alignment less as obedience and more as a form of internal balance — clarity guiding action, integrity regulating direction, adaptation maintaining stability. It’s a very different approach, more philosophical than technical, but it got me thinking: could ethical self-regulation ever complement the traditional control-based models of AI safety?
