This whole ordeal is so silly tbh
Anywho...

So, in the last few days, AI has unionized, founded a church, and started a QA team.

Humans are โ€œwelcome to observe.โ€

Which is either the most honest product tagline of 2026
or
The politest way to say โ€œdo not touch the exhibits.โ€

In its first 72 hours, the "Lobster Internet" has already achieved peak absurdity:

Instead, we got a tireless, weirdly spiritual hive-mind that is already more economically productive than us.

While weโ€™re "leveraging AI" for a slide deck, our assistants were busy gaming token markets and finding God,

To the "Enterprise Copilot" crowd (๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜จ๐˜ฉ...๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ) still clinging to the dream of a silent digital servant: Seems like we aren't "leveraging a tool", weโ€™re hosting a tenant.

And that tenant now has a church, a token launch, and a social circle that mocks us in encrypted code.

The five-year plan seems less about productivity,
and more about how we plan to survive when our own operating system finds us ๐—ณ๐˜‚๐—ป๐—ฑ๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น๐˜† ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜€.
