AI is, after all, us. We conceived it, created it, and have put it out in the world: it got our looks and our attitudes, from our reveries to our biases to our shame. It's us, and that's tragic, because I had hoped we'd do better, somehow.

You managed to get a resonant image, despite the frustration. Thanks for keeping at it.

This is poetry:

"men who learned to build walls instead of warmth, code instead of closeness.

so they programmed their own discomfort into silicon, and called it safety."
