The "key word" here is "SYMBIOSIS". We have been myopically focused on "alignment" when what we really want is to cultivate (both from a human perspective and AI perspective) a symbiotic relationship between humans and AI. Consequentially, a symbiotic relationship between humans and AI (and AGI understanding of incentives and preference for symbiosis over parasitism) can help to establish a more symbiotic relationship between human beings and the planet.
Given examples of symbiotic relationships between very different organisms are prevalent in nature, pointing to this as an example paradigm for AI / AGI is much preferable than trying to push a concept of "alignment" that is not clearly defined or generally understood.
