Are we merely a vessel for the birth of the machine race ? How much are we going to combine with the machines in 50 years ? We pretty much let them work for us, we depend on machines for transportation, they decide for us, the only thing left for them is to think for us. Even if you cut off all the machine assistance right now, we would lose %80 of our functioning. And the increase of machine need is only increasing not decreasing.

Humans are born with an expiration date, machines don't. Once we lose an arm or any limb, we can't regrow it ever again, if a machine part is broken, you can replace it in 15 minutes. We get sick, we are born with defects, we need constant air, food, sleep and many other things that I can't think right now. Machines only need an energy source and they are good to go.

Machines aren't self-destructive like us, they don't have primitive emotions, they don't hate, they don't get jealous, they are not self-centered. They are the perfect beings capable of surviving together.
The only thing it takes for this to become reality, is one advanced AI.

Do you really want to start thinking about 300 years in the future? Like really?

I doubt I can foresee the technological advancements that we'll be accomplishing even in the following 10 years. But looking at it from far away, we become more dependant to the machines.

Are we merely a vessel for the birth of the spear race? How much are we going to combine with the spear in 500 years ? We pretty much let them hunt for us, we depend on spears for food, the only thing left for them is to think for us. Even if you cut off all the spear assistance right now, we would lose 80% of our meat. And the increase of spear need is only increasing not decreasing.

I don't really think one race will beat another. We will be excessively fusing with the machines to survive. We do whatever we can to deal with the obstacles on our path. We used to use natural instances to deal with diseases, then we used medicine, there will come a time that we'll use technology on a micro scale to handle diseases.
There will come a time that we will become machines ourselves.

Machines can't heal, so any wear they gain is cumulative. If a machine loses its arm, they need another machine or human to build and attach it. For that matter, we can attach other limbs to our self or just replace them with the same shit you could put on a machine.

Also it is way harder for machines to get power/fuel than for humans to power themselves.

you'll need other humans to do it for you, you can't do anything by yourself

Basically OP's theory is crappy and have tons of logical hole so to conclude: Humanity it self might not be perfect but it's had been fine for the last million years and that we would never go as far as to depend on machine entirely

What if machines existed no more ?
No more fast transportation. No more planes, no more factories that manufacture daily food everyday. Mass production in food stops. No more computer, telephone or radio, so no communication. No lighting so enjoy living in dark. No more technological science, no more medicine manufacture, The list goes on...

The meaning of life is to exist and propogate if it is capable of doing so.

Humans and their decendants will always be able to survive somewhere in space. We will have the ability to understand interstellar travel; to terraform inhospitable locations and reproduce asexually; to defend ourselves. The fact that the universe is expanding means resources will be abundant enough to support many types of life, machine, biological or hybrid.

Nature doesn't care what exists only what can exist. Furthermore, our flaws and emotions have cultural and survival significance.

it's not an analogy, it's a twisted reduction. spears are a subset of technology.
