## Resource

The provided source, an excerpt from an essay by Jiajie Zhang, PhD , Dean, Professor, and Glassell Family Foundation Distinguished Chair at the McWilliams School of Biomedical Informatics at UTHealth Houston, argues that the notion of AI supremacy leading to an AI singularity is a myth because current AI, including large language models (LLMs), functions as a cognitive artifact that augments, rather than replaces, human intelligence . Dr. Zhang explains that throughout history, human tools have served as extensions of our minds, creating a distributed intelligence where biological brains and technological artifacts work in synergy. Although AI technology is accelerating rapidly and constitutes an AI Revolution as significant as the Agricultural or Industrial Revolutions, its purpose is to liberate us from cognitive labor and enhance our abilities, not to achieve independent supremacy over humanity, which he views as a misinterpretation of the relationship between humans and their creations. The author concludes that humanity must maintain a balanced perspective , ensuring AI serves and benefits people while valuing the unique qualities of the human mind .
