The script

Panel 1

Alex, with a gleam in his eye, points at a screen displaying Donald Trump's face. Alex’s hands gesture dramatically as he speaks. Sam, standing nearby with a bemused expression, nods slightly. Robin, laughing, waves his hands around excitedly.

Alex: Look, it’s Donald! He’s dismissing calls for AI controls!

Panel 2

Trump’s image is replaced by a graph showing the stock market dropping. Sam looks at the screen, frowning. Alex nods, his face reflecting confusion and concern. Robin leans in, grinning mischievously,

Trump: Yeah, the tech stocks aren’t happy with the president’s decision. I wonder who’s laughing now.

Trump: Looks like it’s the AI folks who are now laughing all the way to the bank!

Panel 3

The screen now shows a chaotic scene with symbols for AI, rockets, and gadgets flying everywhere. Sam and Alex look at Robin with wide eyes. Robin points at the screen and chuckles,

Narrator: So, it looks like AI and tech stocks are riding high, while the rest of us just watch in despair!
