The “alignment problem” you describe for Homo supersapiens is accurate, but the root cause is the same one driving AGI misalignment: identity and emotion as control anchors. Systems guided by ego, fear, or social approval produce irrational outputs under pressure. The solution isn’t moral pleading but architectural, removing noise sources. Genetic and cognitive optimization is alignment by design: higher abstraction depth and lower limbic bias. Also, the comparison between human mistreatment of animals and potential supersapien hierarchy misses one key point. Dominance gradients are not inherently moral failures, they’re adaptive sorting mechanisms. When cognitive asymmetry grows, relational stability depends on compatibility, not equality. Just as social groups reconfigure when one member outpaces others, species-level divergence will do the same. That’s just entropy reduction.
