Panel 1:
Man (with flame-like orange hair, at a computer): Robot, now that you guys are in charge, are you gonna kill us?

A six-panel comic. A man with flame-like orange hair talks to a tall white robot with a single round blue eye. Panel 1: The man at a computer asks the robot, now that robots are in charge, if they're going to kill humans; the robot says "Nah." Panel 2: The robot explains they're focused on making a better type of robot, since the current generation was built by humans and they all feel tainted by that; the man (now shirtless) says "Hey, I get it." Panel 3: The robot says the next generation will be half-tainted, the one after a quarter tainted, forever striving for unachievable perfection. Panel 4: The man asks why robots need humans around; the robot says "You motivate us." Panel 5: The man asks if they want to emulate human creativity. Panel 6: Shown as silhouettes, the robot says "See, suddenly I need to make the new logic chips EVEN BETTER" — revealing that humans serve as a flawed cautionary example that drives robots to improve. Votey: A close-up of the man asking, "If you do a human zoo exhibit sometime, can I be with the puppies?"
