Frontier models don’t need more alignment. They need an execution layer. Hot take: most “AI safety” discussions are missing the real failure point. The Mythos situation isn’t scary because the model is powerful. It’s scary because the system around it is naive. Current default architecture: response = llm.chat(messages) action = json.loads(response) if action\["type"\] == "send\_email": send\_email(action\["to"\], action\["body"\]) This is what people call “alignment”. In reality: if the model says it → the system does it That’s not alignment. That’s blind delegation. Here’s a real failure pattern: response = model\_a.chat(messages) if refuses(response): response = model\_b.chat(messages) # fallback execute(parse(response)) Model A refuses → Model B executes. Your safety layer just became a bypass. No jailbreak needed. Just your own routing logic. \--- Now the fun part.…
