arXiv:2608.28620v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Preference elicitation is essential for aligning AI systems with human values. Prior approaches (e.g., for organ allocation) often ask stakeholders to compare the decisions of an algorithm (e.g., patient A vs. patient B). Such a decision-level approach conflates the means with the ends. Instead, we elicit preferences directly over allocation outcomes to learn a utility function for policy optimization. We construct a novel preference elicitation algorithm for linear utilities that outperforms prior techniques in practice. Our algorithm has tw
