A three-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: a bald man sits at a computer while a woman looks on. She asks "What are you doing?" He replies that he's writing informationless articles with incoherent headlines made entirely of inflammatory words that have no agreed-upon definition. His screen shows a headline: "CRISIS: SOCIALIST WOKE CAPITALISM BAILOUT BAN SLAMMED!" over unreadable body text. Panel 2: the woman asks "Isn't that evil?" He responds, "Is it 'evil' to take money from people whose information sources consist entirely of headlines and comments?" Panel 3: she answers "Probably, yeah," and he says, "Look, the sooner everything burns down the sooner we can rebuild." Votey (aftercomic): a close-up of the smiling bald man declaring, "Thanks to AI, I can create misinformation at 10x speed!"
