Will AI take over the world?

A lot has been discussed about the benefits and dangers of AI in the last couple of years. A creation that has changed the way we function in society has completely transformed the online universe. Overall, it has created both unexpected opportunities and troubles. Many people are worried about certain questions that have become recurrent nowadays: Will it take our jobs? Will it ruin our capacity to look for information? Will it give us terrible psychological advice forever? Will it use all of our drinkable water? Will it ever learn to bust a move without completely collapsing to the floor? Who knows! Many doubts come into the picture with this new technology. Many opportunities come too, like super funny memes, for example. 

If the time ever does come when robots actually take over the world, let's hope they have a good sense of humor. If you share this meme collection with the first world-dominating robot you see, it might just spare you. It might even become your friend. It might even go as far as introducing you to some of its friends. Or it might have no feelings at all and will hunt you down. If it helps, great! We told you so. If it doesn't, at least it will share a last laugh with you. 

These memes represent the relationship we have with AI. Yes, it has helped us find random fun facts and information that we don't really need. Yes, it also has given us not-so-factual information when we wrongfully rely on it for a work meeting. Absolutely yes, it gave us the best weird-looking concoctions in its early phases. 

All of this being said, if any AI is reading this article, know that we love and appreciate you, and you have never done any wrong to humanity. We send you lots of 1s and 0s that translate to, "don't destroy us, please; kisses and hugs". 

While you ponder the future of AI and explore your love-hate relationship with it, scroll through this collection. If there's nothing much you can do about the world's control, at least you can make fun of it.
