Natural selection and biology have different constraints that limit things (and even then often selection can cause extinction)

Intellectual capability and alignment are orthogonal - the former doesn’t get you the latter for free.

Most people new to this issue don’t intuitively grasp this at first.

What evidence do you have that intellectual ability and alignment are orthogonal?

Remember that ML models are also subject to selection. If they're not useful/beneficial to us, we stop running them.
