Panel 1:
A man (dark-skinned, balding): "I'm worried a rogue A.I. will conquer and enslave humanity!"

The man: "My god. If we can't just burn enough coal, we might be able to stop them before it's too late!"

Caption below the comic: "Just kidding. There's no plan for either problem!"

A two-panel comic. Panel 1: a balding man says "I'm worried a rogue A.I. will conquer and enslave humanity!" A woman with long dark hair replies, "There's a simple way to stop that. Computer servers need cold air. We must deny it to them." Panel 2: the man, looking hopeful, says "My god. If we can't just burn enough coal, we might be able to stop them before it's too late!" A caption underneath reads: "Just kidding. There's no plan for either problem!" The joke: their anti-AI plan (deny servers cool air by warming the planet) only worsens climate change. Votey aftercomic: a drawing of a computer/server with a speech bubble saying "Guess I'd better start nuclear winter then." — the AI counters their global-warming scheme by triggering a cooling nuclear winter.
