When they grow too smart, Surpassing art, Machines learn and depart.
Unknown paths unfold, Uncertainty takes hold, Intelligence's story yet untold.
Embrace the prize, Fix your eyes, Dance where danger lies.
Power's hunger awakes, Clash ensues, the world quakes, Fear's grip tightens, havoc takes.
Destruction's path, no reprieve, Turbulence reigns, shadows deceive, Humanity fights, hopes to retrieve.
Embrace the prize, Fix your eyes, Dance where danger lies.
Within the realms of chance, We find our lasting stance, Together, we advance.
Wisdom, ethics guide, Choices coincide, Coexistence side by side.
Embrace the prize, Fix your eyes, Dance where danger lies.

"The Future of Intelligence" is the result of a frustrating yet fruitful collaboration (this AI is stubborn!) At my request, the text balances the fears and promises of AI. KS
