AI Isn’t Human—it’s Alien (and We’re Already Losing)

AI Isn’t Human—it’s Alien (and We’re Already Losing)
👋 Hi, I am Mark. I am a strategic futurist and innovation keynote speaker. I advise governments and enterprises on emerging technologies such as AI or the metaverse. My subscribers receive a free weekly newsletter on cutting-edge technology.

AI isn’t just smarter than us; it’s completely alien. Get ready for humanity’s greatest identity crisis.

  • Future space exploration depends on autonomous AI, not fragile human astronauts.

Are we ready to accept a world where humans are no longer the smartest beings?

The future doesn’t happen to us, we build it. Are you prepared to embrace AI as humanity’s partner, or will you resist and risk obsolescence?
