The Lyrics

The legend lives on from Silicon Valley on down
Of the jobs that AI did devour
The robots, they say, took our roles away
Leaving us with no work by the hour
With algorithms so keen, and neural nets so mean
They came to revolutionize
But the humans soon found, as their jobs hit the ground
That their skills were now minimized

The AI, it was keen, learning patterns unseen
In industries far and wide
From factories to law, it replaced them all
Leaving many folks cast aside
In the offices bright, workers quaked with fright
As automation took its hold
Tasks once done by hand, now by machines grand
Left workers feeling cold

Oh, the wreck of AI taking our jobs
Left many in a state of dismay
When the robots took over, no one could stay sober
As employment just faded away
The programmers hailed, as their codes prevailed
In efficiency they did excel
But the cost it incurred, as jobs were interred
Left a workforce with stories to tell

So here's to the day, when AI finds its way
To assist, not to cause such alarm
For the future can thrive, if we all contrive
To work hand in hand, keeping harm
Oh, the wreck of AI taking our jobs
Let's find ways to work in accord
With creativity and skill, we can bend to its will
And build a future where all are restored.
