AI Lab vs Pentagon: 'I Just Want to Crash the Markets' vs 'Make the Killbot'

Description

A two-character wojak comic, black-and-white sketch style with an imgflip.com watermark. On the left, a bespectacled, bearded, soft-featured wojak (tech-bro archetype) holds a paper and says: 'I don't understand, I just want to crash the markets & make white collar jobs redundant.' On the right, an angry screaming wojak in a paper hat overlaid with a US flag points an AK-style rifle and shouts: 'Just make the fucking killbot.' The format parodies the original 'just make the game' game-dev meme, here recast as AI labs with lofty disruption ambitions versus the government/defense establishment demanding military AI applications. Satirizes the tension between AI industry rhetoric about labor automation and the defense sector's actual procurement interests
