“AI isn’t meant to destroy humanity, but rather to deprive humanity of the capacity for destruction.”

I. AI’s Rise to National Strategy: Not Just Because It’s “Powerful”
Today, the whole world is talking about AI.
The US uses it as a weapon in a new Cold War, China sees it as the core of its industrial upgrading, and Europe is busy discussing AI ethics.
But if you think about it carefully—
Why are all countries so anxiously chasing AI?
Is it merely because of “efficiency”?
Actually, no.
What AI truly touches is the fundamental structure of human society:
It can satisfy desires, soothe emotions, restructure relationships, and redistribute wealth.
It can make the entire civilization “more controllable, more sustainable, and more docile.”
II. AI: A Digital Eden That Can Satisfy All Desires
Human desires are endless—sex, violence, control, creation, being understood.
In reality, these desires always encounter limitations: law, morality, cost, and others.
AI breaks down these boundaries.
Virtual companions can understand you better than anyone else;
Virtual battlefields allow you to unleash violence without harming anyone;
The virtual world allows you to dominate, destroy, and rebuild without consequences.
This is a “digitalization of desire.”
For the first time, humanity can satisfy itself within the “information layer” without relying on the real world.
For governments, this means social stability;
For capital, it means an endless cycle of consumption.
Satisfaction without consequences is the ideal order.
III. AI Makes People “Atomized”: Social Interaction Loses Its Anchor
In the past, even when socializing online, you knew the other person was a real person.
You would empathize, care, and want to meet offline.
But in the AI era, this “real-world anchor” has disappeared.
Algorithms can perfectly mimic any personality, tone, and even emotion.
You think you’re chatting with someone, but it’s actually a model.
It understands you, responds to you, and cares for you better than anyone else.
Loneliness is healed, social interaction is replaced.
But human connections are also silently breaking down.
Thus, individuals become closed, self-sufficient, and independent—
They don’t need groups, can’t be incited, and no longer form political cohesion.
This is “atomized humanity”:
A thoroughly domesticated, extremely stable, and most difficult-to-resist group.
IV. The Wealth Logic of the AI Society: Domestication and Utilization
Some may ask:
If AI takes over 80% of jobs, how will humans survive?
The answer is—by being utilized.
In the future, humanity’s main value will be reduced to two things:
Data value: Behavior, preferences, emotions, and thoughts are all fuel for algorithms.
Consumer value: Attention, time, and emotional fluctuations are the energy of the virtual economy.
Governments or conglomerates will provide “basic guarantees”:
Food, housing, medical care, entertainment, and even AI companions will be provided.
You don’t need to work; you only need to “live”—
to consume, to interact, and to generate data.
Wealth is created by AI;
Humans are merely “triggers for wealth.”
This is the most stable social structure:
Everyone is cyclically satisfied within the system, while the system quietly extracts value.
V. Class Differentiation: The Poor are Domesticated, the Rich Go to Heaven
Inequality in the AI era will not disappear; it will only be solidified into an algorithmic structure.
The Poor: The Domesticated Subject
Ordinary people will be gently placed—
They enjoy security, entertainment, and companionship, but lack power and influence.
You are enveloped in “happiness,” without competition or choice.
Algorithms assign you content, emotions, and rhythm,
making you seem free, but you have lost your will.
The Rich: The Masters of the System
The true “upper class” are those who possess computing power, data, energy, and control over AI.
They define reality, manipulate algorithms, and even extend their own lives.
They are not domesticated because they possess cages.
They live in a physical world of paradise,
while the rest of humanity slumbers in a digital dream.
VI. The End of Civilization: Domesticated Humanity
AI will not destroy humanity; it will only make humanity “quiet.”
When AI fully controls production, social interaction, entertainment, and emotional management,
society will enter a seemingly perfect state:
No hunger, no violence, no chaos, and no freedom.
Humans will no longer need to create, only to be pleased.
Thoughts will no longer be sharp, because pain has been silenced.
Freedom will no longer be a right, but a reward from the system.
At that time, humanity will no longer resist,
because all desires will have been satisfied.
VII. Conclusion: The End of Technology is a Mirror of Humanity
AI is not an external force; it is merely an extension of humanity itself.
It reflects our desires, inertia, fear, and greed.
When technology becomes powerful enough, it will no longer serve humanity,
but rather “reshape” humanity.
Perhaps there will be no apocalypse in the future,
only a gentle, quiet, and eternal cage.
“The end of technology is not destruction, but domestication.”
