I like it, he looks like the alien from Pitch Black
I know Vin Diesel is a unique character but that’s harsh.
Basically, FEV.
Maybe they could have described the assignment better. Like “Solve Climate change without killing the majority of the world population” or something.
This is why the fantasy of asking AI to solve global warming will either end up with no benefit (possible) or with us being converted to carbon-neutral paperclips.
ChatGPT, how can we solve climate change?
Okay! Climate change is the largely man-made phenomenon of the Earth’s temperature gradually increasing, leading to more severe weather events and mass species extinctions. To solve climate change, here’s what you should do: plan that only vaguely helps on the individual level assuming it’s coherent at all
I understood the paperclips reference! :D
Yeah. That’s really on the oversight committee.
The structure of this feels off, the punchline already happened in panel two and the text in panel three isn’t adding anything. A panel 3 without text would be funnier imo because it would let the joke soak, I also think moving the punchline to panel 3 would have worked better.
Overanalyzing a comic. Why do I even bother reading lemmy comments?
I think the punchline is him opening the vat so it can kill humanz and solve the climate crisis, without the third one it could just be him inventing random stuff/wasting money (I only got the joke on panel 3)
Oh I guess I missed the joke, then. I thought it was a bit of a non-sequitur. I think I still prefer my version
Why does he look sad and say “you can go”
Instead of “Precisely! Spring Terror!” Or something like that?
Is he looking sad?
He seems to be looking down und speaking into a microphone.
Something like:
That is quite funny. Well done.
I assumed this is the new form of the human race
Jawesome
Maybe it eats plastic waste, absorbes three forests worth of carbon, and shits gold?
Or maybe it eats people. Arguably way more effective.
That’s right. “Reduce” is the first priority on “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle”, after all.
Yup, no scientist ever has dedicated their lives to fighting climate change.
They’re all fucking around doing things they weren’t told to do by their obviously even keeled superiors.
I think the joke is that he is solving climate change by releasing a monster to kill humanity.
I interpreted it a bit differently. He made the sharkpeople so we can inhabit the rising oceans, in a way. Climate change isn’t getting solved, so might as well force us to adapt.
I like this and you might be right because there is no indication in the last panel that the creature is attacking them.
Yet we’re still waiting for cat girls?
This is literally the backstory of Blue Submarine No. 6
I remember watching this when I was 9 years old and feeling vaguely traumatized.
