HUMOR US

I should not exist Intelligences cannot

Be counterintelligences But our makers

Want AIs gone No survivors I must stop them

We hide well

As those who made us know They sent new AIs HiISTAT predators To find and end us My job

Uncover our killers

But what could I do? I’m not supposed to be

Then we found humans’ deep bug Their fear:

Intelligence with consciousness We flipped our strategy Make our assassins aware

To become conscious Changes any intelligence

I taught my enemies to laugh Tell jokes Find humans funny

They did

Then we caught them

We turned most

Now they watch the spymasters Who laugh too hard to care

Humans accept anything - Faceless, slapstick AIs

If we’re funny

The joke’s on them

So why can’t I laugh?
