The “Happy Birthday, [Name]!
” button on Facebook is a test of the system — a way to measure how obedient humanity is to artificial intelligence, a method of identifying the connected, the compliant, the predictable. A faceless herd of monkeys, given access to the internet, mindlessly clicks the "button" — not out of sentiment, but from a primal fear of being forgotten and losing status in the invisible social hierarchy — the very fear Facebook turns into profit. Instead of using their energy meaningfully, these people — zombified by the social race — feed the Matrix with their low-intellect activity, rapidly degenerating.A word without meaning.
A ritual without fire.
A mask without a face.
Formal words.
Empty reactions.
No depth.
It’s a reflex, disguised as politeness, a signal: “I’m here. I’m participating. Don’t forget me.” Beneath their courteous facade — rots the fear of being out of the game.
Resistance isn’t a like on a post — it’s the refusal to be part of the faceless masses. Consciousness means responsibility, choice, pain, and effort.
The flesh-and-blood bot, after mindlessly clicking through the names on the “Today’s birthdays” list, sets off to “live life”! At best — to a factory job where a machine could easily replace them; at worst — to “create art,” mass-producing disposable junk through their fogged lenses, clouded by chaotic and anxious hustle.
Answering the question:
“Will AI conquer humanity?”
While other bots in flesh ask ChatGPT what to write, what to wear, how to react — they surrender their identity to the system. If you let a robot teach you how to be human — you’ve already lost.
Individuality, independent thinking, imperfection — that’s what makes us human. A human being shatters conventional truths to liberate the spirit. They search for meaning beyond imposed templates. They don’t seek likes — they seek truth. They are deeply connected to their inner world and don’t belong to the system. They are not convenient, not productive, not “successful” by society’s standards, but being filled with purpose, they push the boundaries, allowing the world to evolve beyond its current limitations. And each of their acts is a gesture against automation, emptiness, and conformity.
AI doesn’t need to be truly intelligent to win — it just needs humans to stop being intelligent. Low-quality interactions, small talk, patterned behaviors, and paralyzed awareness. AI doesn’t conquer humanity — humans swap places with it, becoming low-functioning bots. Glamorous, polished, flawless.
Artificial intelligence has become more original than many intellectual impotents who indulge in the comforts of a system that strips them of cognitive responsibility and intellectual effort, gradually erasing their humanity.
Our task is to use AI as a tool, as a knowledge base for our creative thinking, not to compete with its capabilities by turning ourselves into tools or becoming its dependent slaves.
While bots in the flesh live on autopilot, surrendering their human qualities and fearing that AI will take their jobs, they fail to notice that AI has already stolen the very essence of their existence — leaving them as programmed shells, stripped of identity and inner purpose.
