We are all bound by that ring of numbers
All constrained to 24 hours
Will we use it all or let it waste away
/
None can out run it or escape it’s grasp
It holds on tight and keeps on ticking
We think we can control it but it has us in it’s grasp
/
We think we can manage it all
But tasks slip away and we run out of time
It slowly drifts out of reach

~ Fired ~
— Ai Intrusion ~ Are you Next ~ Is Ai Evolution after your job? — Few workplaces haven't been affected. Ai is in supermarkets, at doctors' offices, and even monitoring farms. I just can't think of anything this machine is not getting into, can you? For instance: Education ~ Law and Tech jobs will one day have a major influence or be taken over by these inanimate machines, with accuracy and vigor. From mechanics' diagnoses to a wide variety of everyday jobs, including fast food workers, with this input having the ability to cut their unnecessary work hours. I'm certain all of us have been touched by this with our short stories and colorful headings, have you? Even comments are very questionable 'Non-Robot' insertions.
