If there were a motivator captioned “TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS TO HUMAN PROBLEMS”, I would be honored to have my picture appear on it, so thank you very much.
You left out the “ignoring the human part of the problem” part.
The best technical solutions to human problems are the ones that leverage and use the natural behaviors of humans, rather than trying to replace those behaviors with a perfect technical process or system, or trying to force the humans to conform to expectations.
(I’d draw an analogy with Nelson’s Xanadu vs. the web-as-we-know-it, but that could be mistaken for a pure Worse Is Better argument, and I certainly don’t want any motivated superintelligences being built on a worse-is-better basis.)
