I like to believe we are the aspirants of a new social contract.
In general, the idea that we are "achieving wonders" is the glamour of technological development -- humanity desperately needs a native wonder at the glory of existence. The alternative is to require ever increasing astonishment. However his goals are aligned with mine:
we can do this by human-focused efforts paired with the mild charm of AI. It is a wonder, for sure, but that needs to be tempered by a holistic appreciation of the world. Otherwise our constant indecency will have no basis for AI alignment: we are the change we want to see in the world, for good or ill.
we definitely need to get away from "harnessing people's {anything}" language, but this is essentially what I believe too. It's a shame that the ruling class still subscribes to the hegemonic idea of cultural influence: true influence comes from promoting the best, at the cost determined by authentic evaluation, otherwise values like selflessness will remain ever in doubt. Where there is no basis for belief, there can be no cultural development, and then how can we speak of alignment.
