The AI Apocalypse We're Not Talking About
Summary
In the article "The Digital Self: The AI Apocalypse We're Not Talking About," John Nosta highlights a less-discussed but significant impact of AI on human self-perception. As AI systems surpass human performance in various cognitive tasks, they expose the limits and flaws of our biological intelligence—challenging our long-held belief in our intellectual superiority. This shift provokes an existential crisis, not of annihilation, but of diminishing human ego and value. Instead of succumbing to insecurity, Nosta suggests embracing AI as a tool for augmenting human potential and redefining our value beyond intellectual dominance. The real apocalypse, he argues, is one of anthropocentric arrogance, not existential destruction.
