> we should be focusing on augmenting human intelligence

Who’s we? I can throw machine learning at practical real world problems right now.

Augmenting human intelligence? I’m not aware of any work in this area.

Great! We (technologists) should be using machine learning approaches to practical real world problems, particularly those problems whose solutions allow humans to be more productive. That's what I mean by augmenting human intelligence/capabilities.
