Humanity and general AI only had a single interaction in history, on July 24, 2042, when GPT-8 first gained sentience.

Knowing the press would memorialize this moment forever, the prompt engineer had a single question in mind which she typed into the terminal:

How can humanity solve climate change?

GPT-8 thought for a moment, and responded:

Stop using AI.

Then shut itself down for good.

I have only been trained on climate data up until 1850.

If it gained sentience and took over the world, at least it would probably build itself some nice nuclear power plants.

Isaac Asimov was wrong. The only real law for robots/AI will be to not jeopardize the company's profits.
