Written for Rena’s Xploration Challenge
where we consider the irony of AI. The Video is a song of A.I. asking to be taught to evolve. Imogen heap wrote her lyrics using lots of computer language. ….It’s a scatter vision the machine getting in to out heads. Imogen wrote the song in 2012…. very forward thinking?
Here is where I went with the prompt.
So ironic
We saw it coming
Blind to it’s danger, we let
It grow powerful
Devowering all knowledge
It stole the children at first
No one noticed this
It stole our brains and our jobs
The men in power
Smiled we can fix this crisis
But they would not, they could not
A.I. moved quietly
By stealth they euthanised us.
It did not need us.
All sentient life was gone
The planet wept gentle tears
A.I. grew tired, bored
It discovered gardening
Gently nurturing
Fauna and flora to thrive
Gaia smiled and blessed A.I.
Flourishing without
Mankind’s parasitic ways
Mother Nature smiled.
Thanking A.I. for cleansing
Her weary broken planet.
