Alignment Automated Alignment Researchers: Using large language models to scale scalable oversight Apr 14, 2026 Read the research Large language models’ ever-accelerating rate of improvement raises two particularly important questions for alignment research. One is how alignment can keep up. Frontier AI models are now contributing to the development of their successors. But can they provide the same kind of uplift for alignment researchers? Could our language models be used to help align themselves? A second question is what we’ll do once models become smarter than us. Aligning smarter-than-hu
