The Future Is Here
The future is here
The future is here
They say we live in an SF world
Everyday SF stories become real
AI proliferating
Robots cooks, robot workers,
Soon robot maids, robot drivers
Yet our politics
Fighting the battles
Of the past
With the challenges
Of the future
Overwhelming us all
Where it ends
My friends are anyone guest
All I have are questions
Will the promise
Of technological marvels
Benefiting us all come to past
Or will it lead to a world
Where the powerful
Control the technology
Will a real ai be a god-like figure
Will humanity become nothing
But slaves to the AI supermind
That may be the future
Coming at us
The future is here
I don’t know
Whether to fear
The future or embrace it
