A Story by JD Major
"

We have a problem ...in 12 lines

"
GODCO HQ
Quarterly Board Meeting

"We have a problem, gentlemen," Miriam says.
"G is not happy with the MWSE numbers."
"Refresh my memory, Miriam," says Matthew. "What's MWSE?"
~
"The Milky Way Stock Exchange. GODCO has dropped another 8.7%."
~
All eyes lock on Mark. "AI is fast changing everything on 
Earth," he explains, "including investment trends."
~
"How so?" Luke asks him.
~
"AI units are on the cusp of being able to think for themselves,
of replacing our human units in the workforce."
~
"Surely it's a short-term problem at best," John interjects. 
"I mean, it's not like they can reproduce themselves ... is it?"
~
Miriam's brow furrows. "How long did it take human units to figure it out?"
