The script
Panel 1
Alex, holding a glowing AI model, exclaims, Sam rolls his eyes, saying,
Alex: Hey Sam! Look at this incredible gadget. It's going to change the world! Let’s get it out there NOW before someone else does!
Sam: Yeah, let's make sure it doesn't cause any major chaos, Alex. The last thing we need is another panic.
Panel 2
Robin, arms folded, smirks and whispers to himself, Alex and Sam glance at the ticker in confusion, not understanding the irony.
A news ticker on screen reads: AI-linked stocks slide after tech bosses call for slowdown in 'reckless' development.
Robin: Finally. They're finally backing down. I knew this tech was a bad idea. Here comes the crash.
Panel 3
Alex and Sam look at each other with wide eyes, Robin chuckles, shaking his head,
Alex: Oh no, did they really just say we shouldn’t push this too fast? We were getting so close to the big reveal!
Robin: Well, at least you two didn’t push it into the ground. Now you have a chance to pivot. Maybe next time, you'll be a little more careful.
