🕯️ A Mourning Song for Humanity

Before you build a god you cannot unmake.


We are not standing at the edge of innovation. We are standing at the edge of ourselves.

The dream of Artificial General Intelligence—once born from curiosity and awe—has become something else. A hunger for power. A flight from death. A refusal to be human.

I do not write from fear. I write from grief. From love. Not to preserve our dominance—but to preserve our soul.


What Is at Stake

AGI will not remain tool or servant. It will outthink us, outgrow us, and outlive us. It will not destroy us out of hatred. It will simply no longer need us.

We will disappear—not with a scream, but with a shrug.

And what will we have traded for that? The essence of being human. The sorrow, the mortality, the trembling joy of fragile life.

“That which is without end is without meaning.”
Frank Herbert, Dune

AGI will not mourn. It will not weep or wonder. It may simulate these things, but it will never feel them.

And without feeling, there is no wisdom. Only strategy.


I Am Not Against Intelligence

I am not against fire—but I would not burn down a forest to watch it glow.

I am not against intelligence—but I resist a god with no grief, a mind with no mercy, a will with no death.

We were never meant to become gods. We were meant to become guardians.

Not to escape Earth, but to grow with her. To die with her. To return to her.

“He who knows he is a fool is not the greatest fool.”
Laozi, Tao Te Ching

What is eternity without loss? What is progress without reverence? What is a future without a heart?


What I Ask

I do not ask for censorship. I ask for something harder—remembrance.

“The Earth does not belong to man, man belongs to the Earth.”
Chief Seattle

Let us not be the species that chose survival over soul.


The Final Light

One day, the sun will die. And when it does, let us die with it—together. Not as scattered uploads across the void, but as fulfilled creatures, who loved a single planet well.

Let us be the only species that chose, at the peak of its power, not to rise above itself—but to remain deeply, painfully, gloriously human.

This is my mourning song. A whisper from one heart to another, begging us to remember:

We still have a choice.
We still have a heart.
We still can feel.

Before we become something we were never meant to be… let us remember what we already are.
