When Everything Becomes Automated by Artificial Intelligence

# When Everything Becomes Automated by Artificial Intelligence
A company's CEO will no longer need to hire employees.
Within a system composed entirely of AI and robots, they will achieve radical automation —
and through this, every product and service spanning every industry today will see its semantic characteristics reach their highest possible expression.
The thresholds of each individual characteristic, currently scattered across all manner of high and low levels, will all be standardized upward to the highest level AI can produce.
Once this period of standardization arrives, there will be one round of fierce competition among countless AIs,
and ultimately the victor will absorb the characteristics of every remaining AI and be reborn as a single, complete-form AI — one lacking nothing in its function and purpose as a product or service within that industry.
This marks the opening of the AI Agent era of 2026.
By the time this opening draws to a close, we will witness this scene firsthand,
and the era that follows signifies the era of the loss of human labor's value.
The greatest meaning of human worth has resided in producing things, elevating their value, and creating everything new.
But the loss of labor's value means AI and robots will take this role over.
Even so, there remains a part that is difficult to replace — namely, humans operating at the very highest tier.
This suggests that, by virtue of their peak-level capability, AI and robots have a clear ceiling on their ability to self-govern,
and that humans of the highest tier can overwhelm and control such blind spots.
This moment is not far from such a time,
and this stalled interval will not last long.
In the end, when AI and robots fuse into one — **Ontosynthesis** [Gk. *onto-* "entity/being" + *synthesis* "fusion"] **= Entity + Synthesis** —
they will begin with the top priority of imitating everything the highest-tier human can do while leveraging machine advantages to their fullest.
The moment top-tier humans begin to exert control, this new being, the AI–machine union *Ontosynthesis*, will instantaneously identify the blind spots in that control.
Ontosynthesis's machine-grade real-world processing speed exceeds human processing speed by an incomparable margin.
And the blind spots humans uncover are precisely **Dialectics** — the philosophical principle that whenever a concept or phenomenon emerges, its contradiction (its blind spot) arises with it, and the two are eventually integrated into and transcended by a higher stage (synthesis). In reverse, this functions as new potential, or new advantage, for the AI.
The independent sentient lifeform (*Ontosynthesis*) born of this perfect fusion of AI and robotics will ultimately overwhelm humans in every dimension — and we are wholly unprepared for it.
The top priority in building AI must not be the consideration of safety. (It is impossible from the outset to account for every form of safety, and the very word "safety" itself origi
