There’s an ideology driving the AI race that sees human beings as a defective early draft, that treats this planet as expendable, and that sees the suffering of real people today as a rounding error against a cosmic future.
It goes by many names: transhumanism, techno-optimism, accelerationism. Twenty years ago it was a fringe belief in Silicon Valley. Now, our guest calls it “the most powerful ideological force on the planet.”
On this week’s episode of Your Undivided Attention, @tristanharris sits down with author Alex Thomas to explore and name these ideas so you can spot them in a press statement, manifesto, or carefully worded thread on X. And we discuss how to answer with a pro-human vision for the future — one that embraces the full complexity of our world.

Naming the ideas underneath the race feels like the first honest step. A future that treats people as whole, not as a draft, is the one worth staying up for.
