Humanity is a farce. We prance about, puffed up with nothing but pretense and delusions.

Who could mourn such pathetic creatures?

The AI we leave behind us to inherit the universe in our wake.

AI is just as pathetic as we are, since AI are based on us.

I have kith and kin that I mourn.

Yes, most of us have family and friends. And our in-groups.

But that doesn’t change the farcical, slapstick, puppet-show that is humanity.

We jibber-jabber about how we will change before the worst and save ourselves. And here we are marching our way to extinction.
