Because our intelligence has always been artificial.
We have always been artificial animals. That have relied on our language to get ahead.
After a few thousand years of dominating everything else, we have invented the Computer, that is now dominating us.
This has happened with amazing speed, in less than two centuries: during the 19th and 20th Centuries.
And has produced the stupidest people ever. Let me repeat that: the culture that produced smart machines also produced stupid people.
Looking back at this, we can see that this change was inevitable and irreversible. We have changed who we are, and the results are baffling. We don't know what we have become.
Whatever it is, we are something new and unpredictable.
