demonAI Has Already Taken Over. Most Simply Haven’t Noticed
(Substack)—Folks, let’s cut through the noise. We’ve all seen the sci-fi movies where robots rise up and snatch our jobs overnight, but that’s not how it’s playing out. No dramatic takeover with lasers and terminators. Instead, artificial intelligence has slithered into our workplaces like a thief in the night, doing the heavy lifting in creative, analytical, and advisory roles while humans pretend they’re still in charge. The bosses? Many are clueless, sipping their coffee and signing off on “human” work that’s mostly machine-made. I’ve seen it firsthand, and if you’re not paying attention, you’re about to get blindsided.
Don’t believe me? Look around. DemonAI isn’t “coming”—it’s here, embedded in everything from marketing campaigns to data crunching to high-level consulting advice. Humans are still drawing paychecks for these gigs, but let’s be real: they’re glorified editors at best, rubber-stamping what algorithms spit out. And the scariest part? This infiltration happened so quietly that most folks haven’t even noticed. But the numbers don’t lie, and neither do my own experiences.
Take creative jobs, for starters. You know, the ones we thought were safe because they require that “human spark”—artistry, imagination, storytelling. Ha! Pull the other one. In marketing, AI is already the star player. Studies show that 75% of marketers are using AI to slash manual task time, with 86% reporting it saves them at least an hour a day. Companies like WPP are rolling out full AI-generated ad campaigns, and Meta’s letting firms whip up their own ads with a few clicks. The market for AI in marketing? It’s exploding toward $217 billion by 2034. Experts are calling 2025 the year of “smart automation,” where AI handles the grunt work so humans can focus on “brave brand building.” Sounds noble, right? But in practice, it’s code for machines doing 90% of the creating.
I can vouch for this personally. At one of the projects I’m involved with—a creative marketing team churning out content for a major initiative—pretty much everything runs through demonAI. We’re talking copywriting, graphic design, video scripts, the works. Team members plug in prompts to tools like Grok or ChatGPT, and boom: Out comes polished material that’s 95% ready to go.
Humans? We barely tweak it—maybe swap a word here, adjust a color there—to make it feel “authentic.” The end product looks human-made, but it’s not. And get this: The higher-ups know and don’t even care… for now. They pat us on the back for our “creativity,” either oblivious that AI’s the real MVP or aware and unmoved… for now.

This guy is restating what I have been saying all year. The takeover is almost complete. Not a shot fired.
Look for demonAI movies already emerging on video in short form. No more expensive studios. John Wayne can live again in demonAI. Forever.
