A four-panel black-and-white SMBC comic. Two characters talk: a man with short reddish hair and a woman with longer teal-ish hair. Panel 1: the woman asks if he wants to work on the AI alignment problem; he replies that he works in the AI alignment problem. Panel 2: the man explains that there's always a danger humanity will make an AI and, by accident, it won't want to kill all humans, even though humanity obviously deserves to die. Panel 3: he says he's trying to guarantee the robot both sees us as an enemy and believes total annihilation is the only solution. Panel 4: the woman, looking impressed, asks 'Wow. What's your method?' He answers, 'Twitter mostly.' Votey: a close-up of the woman looking distressed and sweaty as a caption reads, 'Twitter plus various violent dictatorships, but mostly Twitter.'
