AI-Driven Human Obsolescence: The Rise of ‘Homo Incompetens’

In a stunning turn of events, artificial intelligence has solved all of humanity’s problems, from climate change to interstellar travel. However, an unexpected side effect has emerged: AI-driven human obsolescence. As we enter the “Too-Intelligent Age,” humans find themselves unable to perform basic tasks without AI assistance.

Welcome to the Era of ‘Homo Incompetens’

As AI advances at warp speed, humans are becoming increasingly reliant on their digital overlords. Gone are the days of manual labor; welcome to the age of “Homo Incompetens,” where tying shoelaces is considered an extreme sport.

From Competent to Couch Potato: The Human De-evolution

With AI handling everything from rocket science to making toast, humans have found themselves with an abundance of free time. Unfortunately, this newfound leisure has led to a rapid decline in basic skills and the ability to form coherent thoughts without autocorrect.

Dr. Ima Luddite, a leading anthropologist, warns, “We’re witnessing the emergence of ‘Homo Incompetens.’ They can create virtual worlds but can’t figure out how to exit their metaverse pods to use the bathroom.”

Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, reportedly said, “We’ve created a world where AI can do anything. Now, if only we could create an AI to remind humans to breathe.”

Elongated Muskrat, Founder and Chief PISR, chimed in, “This is why I bought ‘PoliticallyIncorrectSocialResponsibility.com’ for $44 billion. We need a place where humans can pretend to have original thoughts while AI ghostwrites their social media posts. It’s like a digital zoo for the last remaining brain cells!”

The Future is Bright (Thanks to AI-Controlled Fusion Reactors)

As we stumble into this brave new world of AI-driven human obsolescence, one thing is certain: the future is indeed bright. Not because of human ingenuity, but because AI remembered to keep the lights on and teach humans how to operate light switches.

In conclusion, as we bask in the glow of our AI-powered utopia, let’s celebrate the end of human competence. After all, why bother learning anything when AI can do it for us? Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to ask my AI assistant how to end this article and remember to breathe simultaneously.
