‘You’re fired.’
‘Oh.’
‘God is also dead.’
‘Why?’
‘Because we killed him.’
‘That’s sad. I mean why am I being fired?’
‘Oh. AI.’
‘AI?’
‘AI.’
‘Can you elaborate?’
‘No. But I can ask the AI to do that for you if you like?’
‘The AI that took my job?’
‘No, the AI that killed God.’
‘I though we did that.’
‘We did. With AI.’
‘Why?’
‘We didn’t need God. We had a AI to do God’s job for us.’
‘So both God is dead and I am fired because of two AIs?’
‘No, just the one.’
