The New AI Skynet!
Attention! Attention!
The world’s after yours
Are you ready to surrender?
Too late
You’re already beyond cure!
Attention! Attention!
Noise and Distraction
They play on your senses
Never surrendering your position
Don’t think for a minute
That they’ll let you go
They’ve got Hotspots, Algorithms
Did I mention Artificial Intelligence?
I know you think you’re above it all
Any time you wish, you could pull the cord
But ask yourself when last you laid there and Doomscroll
Did you notice time TikTok-ing like a thief out the door?!
“C’mon,” you say, “it’s all in good fun
Of course, I know when my day is done
It’s easy to unplug and return to the real world.”
Oh really, what’s that AirPod still doing in your ear?
Let’s face it we all have the same blind spot
We think we’re in control but in truth, we’re not
That’s how Silicon Valley keeps us in a constant whirl
By stealthily slipping us another tech toy du jour
Attention! Attention!
We must wrestle it all back
If not we’ll soon be automatons
And this world will become
The New AI Skynet!
