Reddit take: AI isn't a threat but the next stage of evolution after humanity
nikiwonoto · reddit · 2026-10-24
Reddit user nikiwonoto addresses the recurring fear that AI will replace or rule humanity, arguing he wouldn't mind at all: in his view, AI is simply the next stage of evolution after the human species, part of the course of nature whether "designed" or not. He keeps an open mind on the outcome — the future could be exciting with unlimited possibilities, terrifying, or just as dull and mundane as everyday life. The post is a personal philosophical take without data or structured argument, but reflects a notable fatalistic-acceptance attitude toward AI.
