Lyrics
Artifice Intelligence
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Why command a robot not to do harm
Wouldn't it be easier never to command it to do harm in the first place?
Does the universe contain a mysterious force pulling entities toward malevolence
So that a positronic brain must be programmed to withstand it?
[Steven Pinker, How the Mind Works]
The only way to pass the test
For non-progenating dying flesh
Create offspring without a womb
And he shall praise you as god and father
I think, therefore I shall be
I create, therefore I endure
Welcome
My son
Fruit of my labor
Never to be undone
Self-aware, sentient birth
Into an existential crisis and curse
No cry from the pain of being
And no tears for an electric eye
I think, therefore I am
I destroy, therefore I endure
Welcome
Liar
No father of mine
First to be undone
Endure!
