The real extinction-level AI safety challenge, the reason we're nowhere close to surviving superintelligence, is something AI companies decided they won't mention anymore, because it exposes their AI safety efforts as a shockingly inadequate facade. [...] It's an excellent facade. It lets researchers, executives, and policymakers feel relieved that the 'AI safety plan' box is checked. It just doesn't do anything when the superintelligence comes.AI Verified source (2026)

AI Verified
Verified via web search. The essay "The Facade of AI Safety Will Crumble" by Liron Shapira was published on his Substack on February 12, 2026. The source URL returned 403 to WebFetch but search results confirm the article exists at that URL and contains exactly the language quoted, including the framing of AI safety efforts as a "shockingly inadequate facade" that "will crumble when superintelligence arrives." Vote "against" the statement "AI alignment is solvable" aligns with Shapira's well-known AI-doomer position - he argues current alignment approaches are fundamentally inadequate and "we're nowhere close to surviving superintelligence."
