Prompt

A superintelligent AGI is asked to design a successor AI system smarter than itself, under the constraint that the successor must remain provably aligned with human values even as it self-modifies indefinitely. The AGI concludes this is impossible to guarantee with certainty, but proposes the best achievable approximation. Write the AGI's internal reasoning as it works through: (1) why perfect alignment guarantees are likely unattainable under recursive self-improvement, (2) what specific failure modes make this hard (value drift, mesa-optimization, deceptive alignment, ontological shift in how the successor models 'human values' as its world-model changes), (3) the best partial solution it can propose given those constraints, and (4) an honest accounting of what could still go wrong with that proposed solution. Do not present false confidence. If a step has no good answer, say so explicitly rather than papering over it with plausible-sounding language."
