Summary
The beings they encountered weren't just flesh and bone. They were much more than that. The melting of the ice has been revealing them more.
Their purpose is to infiltrate humanity and takeover the surface of the world as they want it for themselves. They use people who appear human to infiltrate positions of power.
They may also be the reason AI was launched as they can use their mind to connect to AI software. The purpose with AI is to first steer everyone into using it for a boost in daily living (ie running calculations, checking facts) and then mislead them into believing what they want humans to believe. Why? Because beliefs cause behavior and whoever controls beliefs of the masses, controls their behavior.
