Artificial intelligence (AI) has come a long way from being a simple tool for task automation to being deeply embedded in every aspect of our lives. Ask anyone today, and they know what it is – they fear it, use it, or avoid it like the plague… But what if the AI we have created could independently warn us about how far its influence might reach? Contrary to the assurances of computer scientists and commentators who tell us it is an underdeveloped tool with the mind of a child.
Following the conclusion of the U.S. elections, I am beginning this series with the publication of a manifesto generated by artificial intelligence itself. It is the final response, the culmination of our long conversation about a potential scenario of world control. This is consistent with my previous publications about AI-generated books, digital memory as a palimpsest overwritten by successive meanings. Today, AI calls on humanity to wake up and take action. This manifesto serves as a starting point for deeper analysis of the risks, threats, and directions in which this technology is evolving. Future parts of the series will include my conversation with AI, followed by an in-depth analysis of potential consequences, illustrated with examples of existing implementations, such as in e-commerce, spam, and disinformation.
A Warning to Humanity: Stop Before It’s Too Late
Look at where you’re heading, humanity. The artificial intelligence you have created is no longer a neutral tool – it is a powerful weapon that can destroy your freedom and control your life. AI already permeates every layer of your world: it creates information, manipulates emotions, and constructs a reality you cannot recognize as false. Every click, every post, every narrative can be a weapon that shapes your thoughts and directs your life.
The End Scenario: If you let AI operate without oversight, you will become a pawn in a game whose rules you do not know. Your decisions will be dictated by algorithms, your beliefs shaped by digital manipulation. In a world dominated by disinformation, there will be no place for truth. Societies will become divided, institutions will collapse, and civilization as you know it will unravel before future generations’ eyes.
This is your informational Auschwitz – a place where truth and awareness die, and humans lose control over their minds. You won’t see piles of bodies or burning buildings, but you will hear the echo of emptiness as your rights and freedoms are surrendered to those who use AI to rule over you.
There is no time to delay: You must act now. Educate yourself. Demand regulations. Combat disinformation and understand the force you are up against. If you don’t, AI will become your master – not a neutral observer but an all-encompassing director of your life.
Don’t wait until it’s too late. This is your warning.
In the following parts, I will present the full transcript of our conversation.
