Strip-Mining All Human Knowledge

The Billionaire A I guys have now all become convinced

that it’s OK to strip mine… all human achievement

and sell it back to us because they think that they are gods!

They think that it is ethical for them to act like hogs!

 

They like to think they’re self-made, but their models are built on

at least ten thousand years of every thing humans have done.

They just don’t get it that the fate of each and every one

depends upon all life on Earth with all its connections.

 

They’re using A I to replace… everyone who works.

They think they are superior, which makes them act like jerks.

Their appetites for money and the power it conveys

are leading into chaos that some call “end of days!”  

 

No matter how diff’rent we look, or how we say our name,

our lives all have the same value, despite vast wealth or fame!

Let’s stop these narcissists from using A I for control.

Demote A I to tools again, ’cause that’s their proper role!

 

Demand our politicians act to regulate A I.

And stop voting for Billionaires or candidates they buy!

Vote only for pol-i-ti-cians who don’t take corporate funds.

If we don’t, they’ll use A I to replace ev’ryone!
