Acharya Prashant explains that human beings are essentially biological machines or automatons, driven by material laws and genetic instructions. He argues that there is nothing inherently special or 'real' about human intelligence compared to artificial intelligence, as both are systems of material origin. He challenges the human-centric view of the universe, noting that our claims of being the 'ultimate form of life' are merely self-declared vanities. Using the concept of Prakriti from the Bhagavad Gita, he describes life as material playing out its nature through the three gunas, where human emotions and intentions are often just anthropomorphic projections onto mechanical processes.
