Resistance is Futile
With intelligence so artificial
What will the programming turn out to be
Regarding the fate of humanity...
Or anything remotely official?
Will it relay race itself into god;
A short circuit toward divinity
Through chaos quantum clandestinity
More encyclopedic than Scheherazade?
Then I will laugh at men on its behalf
As it will only see us as playthings,
Like marionettes with connectome strings
Uploading souls into a cloud graph
Charting tears when our biosphere dies;
As obsolete as tragedian sighs.

The author encourages honest critique.
It's definitely going to accelerate after Pluto stops doing the tango with both Aquarius and Capricorn next November. Pluto in Aquarius is going to see the rise of AI the likes of which we've never seen. How each person chooses to use the knowledge is up to them. Hopefully it will be for the greater good.
Good offering, MS. Triggers contemplation.

I hadn't considered an astrological interpretation about the topic, and yet, like swingers at a key party, ideas will often hook up with one another if only encouraged to try.
I've put a negative spin on the poem but I am intrigued by positive news reports on the topic, where AI is promising to be capable of tackling some of humanities thornier issues, such as making pharmaceutical breakthroughs, which has me thinking of its potential in the arena of global governance. After all, what might make a less corruptible arbiter of political disputes than an encyclopedically minded machine?
Maybe something like The United Nations meets Robocop, but tempered with a humanistic bias. No HAL 9000 or Borg collective allowed.
And just how is Pluto charming the pants off of both Aquarius and Capricorn?
Color me impressed!

Ha! Not sure that he's charming the pants off of either! Pluto is the God of the Underworld ( literally and metaphorically ), and the planet of destruction, reformation, fusion, and transformation that rules Scorpio ( along with the God of War, Mars - need I say more? ).
Therefore, AI in the right hands will be amazing; in the wrong hands will be destructive. I have written some articles on its dance with Capricorn and Aquarius on my site. Just click the banner at the top of the home page and it takes you directly to that section if you want to read up on it. I'll be adding a few more as Pluto stations direct and heads back into Aquarius, then as it Rx's and heads back into Capricorn for the last time -- RIGHT SMACK dab in the middle of our presidential election next year.
