Wolf: Alignment Won't Be Solved Behind Closed Doors at Frontier Labs
Thom_Wolf · x · 2026-09-11
Hugging Face co-founder Thom Wolf elaborated his position:
- Alignment is increasingly one of the key unsolved problems for AI's future and its ability to be deployed globally.
- He increasingly doubts it will be solved behind closed doors at a handful of frontier labs.
- Transparency and open models must be part of the answer.
This underpins his Open Alignment team announcement and FT op-ed.
