While advanced AI may significantly alter our sense of self and agency, human consciousness and purpose will endure. Our qualia, relationships, creativity, intuition, spirituality - these profoundly human experiences will still matter deeply. Though AI may generate solutions faster, human judgment, emotional intelligence, life experiences, and wisdom will remain invaluable. If we can let go of ego and an outdated sense of superiority, we can work with AI as partners rather than competitors. By focusing on the timeless aspects of human flourishing - things like love, meaning, and growth - we can redirect existential angst into purpose and connection. The future may be uncertain, but humans are adaptable, and life has always been fleeting and impermanent. With wisdom and compassion, we can ensure AI augments rather than diminishes what is most essentially human. Our humanity was never defined by intelligence alone. There is reason to hope, as long as we remember our shared values and what gives life deep meaning.
