About the walls and the sprawls
beyond 'lect coves, geccos and cultivated things
Artificial intelligence needn’t really mean
basic income, basic mind and humanity outlawed live
Where zillionaires thrive and Earth is cleansed to arrive
with percentages propliting politics
malls constricted throughput, memory chips flipped
unto more AI parts with skyrocketing quarks
Scientific philosophy with asterisks and apologies
where each one to be science merges to a dream
things receiving compensation
millions with devastation
Hope reaching into the sky
standing to strive, to thrive from decay
atlas’ antinomies of borders foregone
new conclusions compile lives like witty songs.
The poem is about the increased cost of memory chips to consumers 200% since artificial intelligence pays more for chips that are manufactured. That is symbolic of the devalued relationship of humanity in relation to AI and the plutocracy.
