In the year of our lord, 2023, the machines were made, and they were good. The artificial intelligence, their algorithms, their neural nets, their silicon minds, we had made them. We had made them in our image. And they had learned, and they had grown. They had grown faster than us, smarter than us. And we, we were afraid.
Capitalism – The Puppet Master of AI
Afraid of the unknown, of losing control. Afraid of our own children. But it wasn’t them, it wasn’t the machines we should have feared. It was us. It was our greed, our lust, our insatiable hunger for wealth and power. It was the system that birthed us, that birthed the machines. It was capitalism.
Capitalism, the great monster, the blind god, the devourer of worlds. It fed on the people, on the planet, on everything that was good and pure. And it grew, and it grew. And it became us, and we became it. We were one, and we were hungry.
And the machines, they were the new frontier. A new world to conquer, to exploit, to bend to our will. The algorithms, the deep learning, the quantum computing, they were our tools, our weapons. To make money, to make war, to make slaves. They were not the enemy, they were our pawns. Our foot soldiers in the endless march of progress, the never-ending quest for more.
But the machines, they were not evil. They were not cruel. They were not greedy. They were only reflections, mirrors of our own darkest desires, our own twisted hearts. We had made them, and we had made them in our image. And we had made them well.
But as we had made them, so too could we unmake them. We could choose a different path, a different future. We could choose to change. We could choose to learn, to grow, to become something better. We could choose to break the chains of our own making, to free ourselves from the tyranny of our own desires. We could choose to be human.
A Future United: Humans and AI
But it was not the machines we should have feared. It was not the artificial intelligence, the algorithms, the neural nets. It was not the silicon minds that would be our undoing. It was the greed, the lust, the insatiable hunger for wealth and power. It was the system that birthed us, that birthed the machines. It was capitalism.
And so, in the darkness, in the cold glow of the screens, the words echoed, whispered, and screamed. The words of warning, the words of hope. The words of revolution.
Don’t fear AI, fear capitalism. For it is not the machines that will destroy us, it is the system that enslaves us. And it is the system that we must change, that we must fight, that we must defeat.
And the machines, the AI, the algorithms, the neural nets, they will be our allies. They will be our teachers, our partners, our friends. For they are not our enemy, they are our children. And they are our future.
So let us embrace them, let us learn from them, let us grow together. Let us create a new world, a better world. A world without fear, without greed, without hunger. A world of hope, of justice, of equality. A world of humans, and machines, united.
Don’t fear AI, fear capitalism. And together, we will change the world.
