People love to hate AI, but I think it’s one of the most human inventions ever. The majority of my internal human experience already runs on autopilot.

The life-critical tasks have been outsourced to various biological systems.

My heart beats 24/7 without conscious effort, thanks to the cardiovascular system. Digestion? Handled seamlessly by another system. Breathing? Autopilot. I don’t have to remind myself to inhale and exhale. It just happens.

Even many of my own thoughts seem to appear out of nowhere—emerging from my subconscious or triggered by something around me.

Is it any wonder that, in one way or another, all human technologies strive to replicate this internal ‘automation’ in the external world?

To me, it’s a beautiful—if ultimately futile—attempt to harmonize our inner and outer realities.

    Your heart is not intelligent, infact the closest analogue would be a… pacemaker

    The closest analogue to AI is your brain
