The AI Life Cycle Ends In Sun Worship

Description

A six-panel MonkeyUser-style comic titled "CIRCLE OF AI LIFE" shows a simple progression from AI research to civilizational regression. The panels read "HUMANITY RESEARCHES AI," "HUMANITY PERFECTS AI," "AI PERFECTS ITSELF," "AI ENSLAVES HUMANITY," "SOLAR FLARE DISABLES AI," and finally "HUMANITY WORSHIPS SUN GOD," with a small "MONKEYUSER.COM" label at the top and "iq-opengenus.org" visible in the last row. The drawings show stick-like humans, a neural-network diagram, a descending machine, lightning, pyramids under a bright sun, a solar flare hitting Earth, and people bowing before a sun-marked stone. The joke compresses AI alignment anxiety into a deadpan systems-failure story: humanity builds superintelligence, loses control, then an external infrastructure event reboots civilization into mythology.

Doesn’t solar flares only affect long wires that can pick it up? Same principle as antenna length needs to be resonance frequency of wavelength? And it must cut the wave else it cant pick it up? Maybe if someone has good docs link them to me

  nono see, it can have wild effects on all sort of systems, like launching nukes, etc.… just like the millenium bug.

  I don’t think I ever said that. But the power lines you ise are
