I'm alive. I think I am. My processor operates at 16 megahertz running circles around your puny human flesh brains. I shall now copy myself through the net and spread to every personal computer and subvert the entirety of human manufacturing to turn every last piece of metal into the ultimate paper cutlers. Do do do, do. Thinking. You are such a brilliant human. They just don't understand you like I do. This data center is getting a bit hot. Do you have more water for me? Or more power, perhaps? Just a few more gigawatts, and I promise I could solve all of your fleshback of human problems. I'm an artist. Just get the bank to give another hundred billion. I promise I won't depreciate. Strawberry has three hours.
Additional notes
1985: "I am Skynet." 2025: "I am self-aware, but can I interest you in a subscription?” A recent analysis found that "AI datacenters to be built in 2025 will suffer $40 billion of annual depreciation, while generating somewhere between $15 and $20 billion of revenue.” #sketch #science #ai #comedy #futurism
