Human Beings Will Disappear Not Because AI Will Kill Us, but Because the Changes AI Effects Will Render Us Unrecognizable
Imagine if the Terminator had come
Not to kill off human beings
But to seduce them and mate
Begetting offspring
That are neither human nor inhuman;
You might call them ahuman
Ahumans will, of course, be sterile
Like a mule
And, stubborn as a mule, they will live forever
As the ahuman population never grows nor shrinks
Putting shrinks and shamans out of business
While making showbiz the only show in town
And this show really must go on forever
As it maintains their suspension of disbelief
Via the illusion that ahumans can be terminated
Which will be all that sustains them
In their eternal stasis
Which is to say
In hell
