Thinking differently is fine, but there are limits to that when the future of humanity is at stake. AI represents the end of life on Earth when embraced. This has been predicted for 1000s of years - a parting of the ways where the majority of people destroy themselves through denial of their own internal essence.

We should embrace new possibilities. At least, you are using computers as well, right? With your argumentation, one could have said, computers bring the end of the world, enslave humans, manipulate and oppress them.

Not all possibilities are valuable. Any external technology does indeed pose a threat to the ultimate evolution of internal capacity, however, some is more extreme than others. AI cuts straight to the core of the spirit of life itself, bypassing emotion and the individual will. It is a rapid pathway to suicide. You will find if you make enough of the unconscious conscious that there are many programs operating within the human condition that equate to most people having an unconscious death wish, this is a very perilous situation and only a tiny number of people will resolve it. AI insertion into neurology guarantees evolutionary failure.

That´s how the evolution works since eons: Try new things out and if they fail they will vanish. Same here. Why would just this technology be so disastrous? Humankind is overall very resilient.
I think the wokeness/trans/cancel culture much more dangerous because it is an invisible virus which works against all natural drives of humans.

Humanity is already on the brink of extinction due to having denied so much of the emotional input within self. This denial is the actual cause of the existence of sub and unconsciousness. AI is an attempt to make up for the power that has been lost by denial, but it will only result in more denial. Most people are already too lost to recover and AI will push the rest beyond the point of no return.
