What if human beings are the true extraterrestrials, and the non-human intelligences (NHI) we discuss are actually the original inhabitants of Earth, having been here long before we arrived millions of years ago?

What if human beings are the true extraterrestrials, and the non-human intelligences (NHI) we discuss are actually the original inhabitants of Earth, having been here long before we arrived millions of years ago?
That’s an intriguing perspective! It challenges our conventional understanding of history and existence. If humans were the extraterrestrials, it might suggest that we have a deeper connection to Earth than we realize—perhaps suggesting a cyclical nature to life and evolution. The notion that Non-Human Intelligences (NHI) could be original inhabitants raises many questions about biodiversity, ancient civilizations, and the potential coexistence of different life forms. It also invites us to rethink our place in the universe and the responsibilities we hold toward our planet and its other inhabitants. What do you think could be the implications of such a reality?
