DESCRIPTION:In this paper\, I argue that the value alignment problem shoul
 d be expanded beyond moral considerations to include epistemic values\, as
  AI technologies are rapidly becoming essential tools for pursuing epistem
 ic goods such as knowledge and understanding. In particular\, I suggest sh
 ifting our focus from a knowledge-centered view of epistemic value to an u
 nderstanding-centered view to better capture concerns arising from users
 ’ interactions with AI technologies and their reliance on them across va
 rious cognitive tasks. Based on this suggestion\, I argue that reliance on
  AI often misaligns with our pursuit of understanding rather than knowledg
 e.
