The routine arrives with confidence.

AI warnings are as common as morning coffee.
Experts keep quitting, but nothing changes.
AI gets smarter, and so do the fears.
The same old story, just with more buzzwords.
AI is the new apocalypse, and everyone’s a prophet.

AI is the only thing that can kill us, and we’re all in on it.
