The Human Superalignment thesis addresses a critical challenge: ensuring that the rapid advancements in technology serve to enhance human potential rather than marginalize it. In contrast to the more commonly discussed concept of AI superalignment, which focuses on aligning artificial intelligence with its intended objectives and ethical guidelines, Human Superalignment reframes the conversation, centering it around human empowerment. Instead of solely focusing on making AI “safe” or aligned with its own outputs, the thesis emphasizes the need to adapt technology to unlock human brilliance, creativity, and societal progress.
As AI, automation, and digital identities reshape industries and economies, the human element is often overlooked. Human Superalignment positions itself as a proactive response to this imbalance, ensuring that individuals are not only consumers of technology but active beneficiaries. This mission is urgent because of the growing disconnect between the development of advanced technologies and their direct impact on people’s lives, work, and well-being. By focusing on empowering creators, advancing national resilience, and integrating human and digital capabilities, Human Superalignment seeks to create a future where technological progress elevates humanity as a whole, bridging the gap between innovation and its tangible human benefits.
In this sense, Human Superalignment is positioned as a necessary complement to AI superalignment, but with a far more holistic and human-centric perspective. The focus is on ensuring that technology, in all its forms, aligns with the core needs, values, and aspirations of people—driving innovation that enhances quality of life and societal growth.

The thesis has three key pillars:
- Digital Twins: This includes Meta-Identity, Transhumanism, Social Media, Human & Brain-Computer Interfaces, and the concept of a second self that exists and interacts in the digital realm. Expands beyond simple digital representations to include clones, robotics, AGI, and brain-computer interfaces using both wearables and emerging biomaterials.
- Long-Tail of the Creator Economy: Focuses on the Gig Economy, Content, Fintech, Blockchain Media, Web3 & Memecoins, Viral Organic Marketing, MarTech, and Social Automation. It addresses how new forms of digital work and expression will shape the future of employment and content creation.
- American Dynamism: Encompasses national security, American innovation, and ensuring a high quality of life in the age of advanced technology, supporting the idea that human potential should drive the development of AI and not the other way around.
