The most common legitimate interpretation of Nietzsche’s concept of the will to power is encapsuled on the idea of a driven force that insatiably propels humans desire for self-affirmation, enhancement, and inevitably change, regardless of the potential constraints and failed attempts to achieve a metaphysical absolute or permanent timeless state of perfection (deterring its own death). The absurdism and Nihilism anchors at shores with the volatile and tiresome idea of the dystopian post humanistic views whilst nonetheless, aligning with Nietzsche‘s self affirmative concept of will to power, that no matter what humans are faced with their will to power, the will to become will always be permanent. This represents power of all sentient beings who have a physiology connect with a neurological system. This same force capable of transforming neurological agents forever continues to make us look more like Sisyphus or Camels moving exhaustively and indifferent in a dessert of meaning. The common post modern interpretation of where this force will eventually lead human history from a teleological or under an Hegelian method of exploring concepts, speculatively leads to an intersectional conceptualisation of the will to power with a dystopian and radical post human view. A current debate that should be better explored in the relation to a post human view of how the will to power might continue to lead us in a post human era is enough reason for speculation and reflection. the potentiality of AI as either a dominant agent in shaping our future environment, or a different source of power capable of creating a conflict of power dynamics is of crucial relevance in future AI ethical committees. The connection between will to power and a futuristic fully autonomous, capable of developing itself, of creative powers Despite the will to power not being ascertained as a scientific theory, the dissertation will attempt to shorten the distance between scientific and philosophical methods, and furthermore sustain the argument based on the idea that Nietzsche’s philosophical work was rather interdisciplinary crossing different reflections on the influence of different scientific theories of the time. Accepting this idea will fundament the defense that Nietszche#s reflections already acquired a post-human approach rather than a humanistic or anthropocentric view of values based on divisions categorised as good and bad.
