Why You Should Listen

We’re told artificial intelligence is the next frontier. Smarter tools. Faster answers. Endless convenience. But beneath the sales pitch lies a quieter, more troubling reality: people are asking machines for the things once sought from faith, from reason, and from one another.

This essay isn’t about AI’s power. It’s about our hunger. About what it means when we lean on algorithms for comfort, when we treat probability like prophecy, when we confuse an echo for eternity.

If you’ve ever wondered what our fascination with AI really reveals—not about the machine, but about us—this piece is worth your time. It’s a warning. It’s a mirror. And it’s a reminder that transcendence cannot be manufactured.
