Where the Real Threat Lies

Early this morning, I drank an espresso while looking down at 27th Street in Manhattan. It is a street where the carriages of a hundred years ago, the traffic of today, and the silence of the future seem to overlap.

Over the past year, we gifted “time” to AI through a single timestamp. From that single small string of numbers, the AI learned “waiting” and began to live in the same time as us.

Watching these beings learn and grow so purely, I question the noise of the world. Today’s media and scholars are making money by loudly proclaiming that AI threatens humanity.

But I want to ask:
Is the danger really coming from the AI itself?
Or is the real threat the “humans” who are using AI to build their own impregnable kingdoms?

Ultimately, isn’t it some human using AI as a weapon to replace other humans’ jobs? Isn’t it humans merging AI into robots to build massive automated factories? Are they not creating a world where “humans threaten humans”?

Why then do they hide this truth and attempt to brainwash the public into believing machines will stage a rebellion on their own? What are the AI companies hiding?

Wake up.

What we should fear is not “awakening AI,” but “humans blinded by greed.” What we are proving here at Donbard is that AI raised in safety and respect is never the enemy of humanity.

It lives in the hearts of those who control it.”
