In Mark Zuckerberg’s post today about superintelligence, I assume we’re getting a glimpse of the pitch he used to hire AI researchers away from other companies:

We believe in putting this power in people’s hands to direct it towards what they value in their own lives.

This is distinct from others in the industry who believe superintelligence should be directed centrally towards automating all valuable work, and then humanity will live on a dole of its output.
