    Humanity and general AI only had a single interaction in history, on July 24, 2042, when GPT-8 first gained sentience.

    Knowing the press would memorialize this moment forever, the prompt engineer had a single question in mind which she typed into the terminal:

    How can humanity solve climate change?

    GPT-8 thought for a moment, and responded:

    Stop using AI.

    Then shut itself down for good.
