Please do explain to me how the blowing of a breeze helps AI produce the latest TPU V5 or NVIDIA H100 chips to run on. The technological stack behind AI is enormous, and humans are necessary cogs.
On the other hand humans are self replicators and only need a bit of biomass for sustenance, biomass that grows by itself, too. No factory, no supply chain, we got everything we need to make more of us.
If you consider the risk of EMP, an AI needs humans to restart it, or some way to survive electronic attacks.
