Your author wrote a straight-forward article about the current state of AI. The article that follows is what AI sent back when I asked it to make my report funny. Here’s my original post Original Report on AI.

We are wise to be wary of artificial intelligence. Like a toddler with a chainsaw, it has incredible potential and the unnerving ability to ruin everything if left unsupervised. We should absolutely research how it can be stopped if it gets out of hand—preferably before it starts ordering drone strikes on behalf of a disgruntled smart fridge.

Perhaps it already has gotten out of hand. Is it possible that AI, designed by corporations and programmed to protect profit margins with the fervor of a dragon guarding treasure, has convinced the American people that the current state of the economy is “actually fine”? Is it steering the economy while the people in power sit in the captain’s chair making beep-boop noises, thinking they’re still flying the ship?

On the other hand, AI might also be the best thing that ever happened to us. It could help with everything from decoding complex medical conditions to answering “What’s wrong?” during a relationship argument with more accuracy than the human male brain ever has. It might even guide us away from disasters—unlike, say, the Manhattan Project scientists who once calculated there was a 3% chance the first atomic bomb would ignite the atmosphere and end all life… and then still lit the fuse.

Your author sincerely hopes AI will step in next time someone says, “Sure, let’s gamble the entire planet on this napkin math.”

Of course, people are understandably worried about job loss. When you combine AI with robotics, you’ve essentially created an employee that never sleeps, doesn’t need dental, and won’t unionize because it doesn’t care about lunch breaks. It’s like the perfect worker… if you’re a villain in a 1980s sci-fi movie.

Think about it—what job couldn’t an AI robot eventually do better? Baseball umpire? Already happening. Truck driver? On the road, literally. Surgeon? Steady hands, no coffee jitters. Lion tamer? Sure, just add armor plating and a cat-calming algorithm.

So yes, it may seem like we’re all doomed to unemployment. But fear not: your author believes AI will usher in a golden age of prosperity so absurdly abundant that work becomes obsolete. Just like citizens of oil-rich nations didn’t need to personally dig for crude to benefit, we’ll all enjoy the bounty of AI without needing to code, lift, or make lattes. Universal Basic Income will feel more like Universal Basic Spa Day.

Of course, then we’re left with a tough question: if AI can do art, music, literature, surgery, law, and emotional support better than us… what’s the point of us? Well, we don’t have the answer yet—but I imagine we’ll adapt. Maybe we’ll double down on relationships, self-discovery, and hobbies like playing pickleball. You know, until robots start serving aces at 120 mph and we’re forced to switch to something they can’t dominate—like interpretive dance… oh wait.
