Total Disruption: Artificial Intelligence vs. Machine Intelligence, Society & Classes vs. Trans-Post-Humanism
No human society is immune to total disruption, radical transformations, negative or positive, good or bad, of the existing state of affairs (status quo), with regard to social, economic, legal, environmental, political, religious, technological, scientific or military issues, all as total revolution or anti-revolution.
We are unaware of disruptive, transformative and global changes from emergent general-purpose intelligent technologies.
We are unmindful of revolutionary impacts of superintelligent machines on society and its future.
We are unlearnt to distinguish the human-like, human-compete AI from the human-complete Machine Intelligence and Learning (MIL).
We are oblivious of how human-mimicking AI, as ANI, AGI or ASI, is an existential risk and threat to human society and its future.
We are uninformed about MIL total revolution vs. human AI anti-revolution.
We are ignorant of emerging total revolution or anti-revolution, techno-scientific, social, economic, political, cultural, ideological, intellectual, educational, religious, spiritual or personal.
MIL Revolution vs. AI Anti-Revolution
Human-Compete AI/ML refers to the simulation of human intelligence in computing machinery that is designed to think and act like humans, learning from experience, making decisions, and perform tasks instead of humans. It is behind the total socio-techno-political industrial anti-revolution bringing great negative disruptions all around the human world.
Machine Intelligence and Learning (MIL) is the general-purpose hyperintelligent technology behind the total socio-techno-political industrial revolution bringing great positive disruptions all around the world.
MIL technology is a large-scale fundamental techno-scientific social project with a view to create the reality modeling and understanding machines operating on the world learning, inference and interaction engines.
All our social changes and techno-scientific progress start with how we truthfully model the world and its contents, its parts and pieces, be it the universe, its matter and forces, time or space, nature and natural phenomena, humans and society, etc.
But instead of modeling and simulating the universe of reality, in all its complexity, today’s AI is simply reduced to its specific small part, a human being, the human brain or human intelligence or human cognition or human behavior, while totally missing the world modeling capacities.
As a result, AI is fragmented into various forms, models, techniques and applications: machine learning, neural networks, deep learning, large language models, chatbots, etc.
There are more and more findings highlighting the need for a fundamental shift in the design and development of general-purpose AI, as part of MIL, particularly in high-stakes areas, as human life and work, society, government, economics and the future of humanity.
The MIR revolution is to cause the greatest changes in the human world, disrupting economies, social structures, political institutions, or all the fabric of human life.
The Coming Collapse of Civilization
A civilization?is defined as a?complex society?characterized by governments,,?social stratification,?urbanization, commerce, symbolic?systems, culture, philosophy, literature, art, science, industry, agriculture,?architecture,?infrastructure,?technological advancement,?currency,?taxation,?regulation, and?specialization of labor.
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers have predicted that the collapse of the world might happen in the 21st century, in 2040.
As a matter of fact, the human world is NOW facing the coming Collapse of our Civilization due to the 9C+ causes

All in all, modern society is all-unsustainable, scientifically and technologically, economically and politically, socially and environmentally.
The silver bullet solution is human-friendly hyperintelligent MIL machines taking over the techno-political control of human society.
AGI Transhumanism or MIL Posthumanism
Transhumanism advocates the use of current and emerging technologies—such as genetic engineering, cryonics, AI, and nanotechnology—to augment human capabilities and improve the human condition, creating a future in which an enhanced man-machine species transcends humanity as the posthuman.
In "Transhumanism: billionaires want to use tech to enhance our abilities – the outcomes could change what it means to be human", Elon Musk has reportedly said he wants humans to merge with “to achieve a symbiosis with artificial intelligence”, the idea inspired by transhumanism of technological transcendence and the enhancement of human capabilities, advocating for the three “supers” of superintelligence, superlongevity and superhappiness.
Creating AGI – that is, a human-like and human-level AI system that can do all the cognitive tasks a human can do and more – is a current focus within Silicon Valley; for it is seen as vital to enabling humans to take on the God-like role of designing our own evolutionary futures.
That is why companies like Microsoft, Google, OpenAI, DeepMind and Anthropic are racing towards the development of AGI, despite warning that human-competitive intelligence could lead to human extinction.
We currently live in a very unequal world, unjust and fragmented into hostile classes, the upper, middle, lower/working and underclass.
AGI transhumanism, if developed in anything like our existing social context, is likely to greatly increase inequality, and may have catastrophic consequences for the majority of humans.
The world’s wealth distribution pyramid shows that: half of the world's net wealth belongs to the top 1%, top 10% of adults hold 85%, while the bottom 90% hold the remaining 15% of the world's total wealth, top 30% of adults hold 97% of the total wealth.
The big unresolvable issue is that the global distribution of wealth is completely unaligned with the global distribution of human intelligence, which the techno-billionaires hope decide by replacing the middle/low/underclass population by the mass production of quasi-AGI machines and humanoid AI robots.
Otherwise, such a huge socio-economic inequality, as the vast gap between the wealthy and a jobless underclass, will end with the full destructions of all established socio-political institutions and structures.
All in all, we are about to see the greatest disruption in the redistribution of economic, political and military power in human history.
This includes a social disruption of the human class societies as "people having the same social, economic, cultural, political or educational status", defined by wealth or inheritance or occupation, income, education or social status.
In the MIL world, all the social classes, as top upper elite, middle, working lower/underclass, are to be transformed into a classless society where the position of elite will be taken over by man-machine hyperintelligences.
