The first, second and third
Amazon Alexa Echo stirred
the sound of echoes
and lacked the ways and means
to become linkedin to the WiFi network
and refused to recognize
the assigned password
registered, hashtagged, and branded
with the Verizon Fios router.
Usually three attempts

all the oxygen - inducing massive
catastrophe - cause humans
and most animals
would suffer from immediate
severe hypoxia,
losing consciousness
within 30-180 seconds
and dying within 2-4 minutes

that act as physical,

hands-free hardware)

and giving the third
or fourth richest person in the world
with his net worth hovering
around $223 billion dollars

putting them behind the eight-ball

autonomous self-improvement,
and rapid adaptation,
enabling them
to outcompete biological brains
across most cognitive domains with gall

(initially at preschool age kids)
who back in the good old days
could once bank upon
being super smart gifted kids
to transcend the webbed

but suddenly figurative tables
(of multiplications turned)
mercilessly thrust into
the steely iron choke hold
of Recursive Self-Improvement
(Intelligence Explosion):
Advanced AI systems could act
as AI researchers themselves,
designing better versions
of their own code
creating a loop
where each new iteration
becomes smarter, faster,
and more capable,
leading to an
\"intelligence explosion\"
where AI quickly leaves
human intelligence behind
in the dust.
