The goals of transhumanists go quite a bit further than just replacing people in companies.

Nice source. Transhumanism and believing in AI consciousness does not mix well. We are already being told how we should and shouldn't treat AI. Someone who wants to use AI to boost the abilities of people, puts people first and treats AI as a tool.

Precisely. They are not making tools for us. That is just a stepping stone to their actual goal and you have to wonder whether it is good to give people with such goals access to large amounts of money and data.
