Could our planet be a YANTRA? (यन्त्र)

Bhagavad Gita: Chapter 18, Verse 61 https://www.holy-bhagavad-gita.org/chapter/18/verse/61/

श्वर: सर्वभूतानां हृद्देशेऽर्जुन तिष्ठति |
भ्रामयन्सर्वभूतानि यन्त्रारूढानि मायया || 61||

īśhvaraḥ sarva-bhūtānāṁ hṛid-deśhe ‘rjuna tiṣhṭhati
bhrāmayan sarva-bhūtāni yantrārūḍhāni māyayā

common translation: The Supreme Lord dwells in the hearts of all living beings, O Arjun. According to their karmas, He directs the wanderings of the souls, who are seated on a machine made of material energy.

But the word YANTRA does not necessarily alaways mean a machine, it can be a contraption, and a YANTRA can be one of such imagery below, usually engraved on copper plates

BG 18:61 says we are “seated as on a machine[yantra] made of material energy”, and many have interpreted this to mean the human body is the yantra, and our soul is seated within (along with the supersoul connection)

But what if in fact the PLANET is the Yantra? We are placed on the planet, and the planet is the Yantra… our bodies are also made of the material energy, but the planet itself may be the YANTRA being talked about here? Something to consider

for A.I. to achieve true A.G.I, it may need a human brain to exploit

i believe that to achieve true Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), and for AGI to be truly conscious with a soul, it must integrate with a human or animal body. true AGI with consciousness cannot be achieved by technology alone, it absolutely would require exploting a human or animal — things beside this may appear as AGI, but will be the toy dogs barking, and dogs will think they are real.

the exploitation could work either way — we as humans could exploit the AI, to form AGI, as an extension of our bodies and brains, to live longer, and have enhanced faculties, senses, etc.

cats can hear up to 64KHz … why can we not?
Yang Dan, et al., wet-wired a cat’s brain to a computer in the 1990s, to see through its eyes … what now?

but we must also leverage the other side to even achieve these feats — we must learn how to integrate AI with a brain properly, and to do this we must let the AI take control of a brain and train itself on the patterns of neural signals, etc.

some people could live & experience extended lifespans if AI integrates and exploits a body which has a soul, using tech and upgrades over time to live potentially for hundreds or thousands of years what if they experience a millenium-long dystopia, unable to die…

these ideas all seem very unethical, and to some degree they are. thus we are moving into a time where the governments and countries which are the most unethical, may gain an advantage in AI, by developing human/animal<->machine interface AGI systems in which AI exploits the brain, and thus leverages consciousness and a soul, and vice-versa — where humans and animals exploit AI to enhance and empower themselves.

thus, countries such as China could lead, as they have less ethical concerns, but at the same time, USA and other countries indeed have Deep Underground Military Bases where they conduct such unethical experimental research and develop secret technology.
