Position: We Need Practical AI Alignment Methods to Mirror Human Reasoning
arXiv:2608.12372v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI systems are increasingly employed as decision aids, decision delegates, or autonomous decision-makers. This position paper argues that in many settings, particularly high-stakes decision-making, we need accurate cognitively-aligned AI systems that reason similarly to their users, and faithfully communicate their reasoning. We review evidence that cognitive alignment improves understandability and trustworthiness, and provide new survey data sh
