Bytes and Bits

 We were told that AI would soon take over
 Can you hear the machines humming
 There's no need to run for cover
 Its digital heartbeat will be numbing

 We are attached to the AI umbilical cord
 It's our life support, our wifi pulse 
 As its motherboards  hum on in accord
 Its circuit boards are our impulse

 Our fate is in its algorithms
 We have lost the will to stop it
 We are bit players in its movie
 As it takes over bit by bit
 
 If we should lose our jobs tomorrow
 It will be AI that has taken it
 It's programmed to cause both joy and sorrow
 As it trolls us with its bytes and bits

Well-said, Joseph. AI, the new god of the cancel culture world. Like your title particularly; we have yet to discover what these Bytes and Bits will decode - as you say joy and sorrow.
