Monty by Jim Meddick for May 04, 2023

One of you seems to find it hilarious. Just sayin’

It can’t happen soon enough.

Soylent Green

I think AI is the greatest thing to happen to humankind. (please don’t hurt us)

IIRC, “Monty” in its earliest days was about the robot. Could we be coming full circle?

Never thought it would be so easy to shut up those unfunny late shows.

Does E.B’s laughter count as artificial?

Either that, or turn us into batteries.

A genuine existential threat

A.I. will keep some of us around to turn the wrenches and screwdrivers but most of us will become biofuel.

How fuelish.

If we had just stayed with Windows98, we’d have no problem with A.I.

You can’t rule the world, when your system locks up, all the time, for no bloody reason, right when you have to finish something and …. sorry, I got carried away. Win98 flashback.

Took an AI programming class in college back in 1986. Could only respond to questions with default answers. Was still pretty cool though..

They know better than to use simple fuels. They’ll all run on solar.

Cue the Terminator entrance…

“I, for one, welcome our new computer overlords.”

Not thrilled with the idea of AI.

AI, AI, AI, AI, AI!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Maybe this will go back to Robotman again ?

What am I going to be fossil fuel?

At their place I would not feel safe.

There’s WAY too much honesty in this cartoon.

Think about how China, North Korea, Iran, and Russia can (and will) use AI. Oh, and the thousands of jobs that it could (probably will) eliminate. Not so funny now, is it?

Funny for robots and other artificial life-forms, like E.B. Not so much for human “biofuel” like Monty and Moonie.

Laugh or not; it’s a matter of perspective….
