 Socialist Stanza No. 12

AI

 

Artificial Intelligence

Seems so inhumanly quick,

For all potential benefits

It provokes moral panic.

 

Might it cause mass unemployment?

Leave the working class in bits?

Depress wages, even as it

Greatly increases profits?

 

Perhaps become the cause of war,

Set faction against faction,

Solve or worsen global warming?

But this is all distraction.

 

Obscuring the actual source

That threatens human advance;

Capitalist thinking promotes

Artificial Ignorance.
