Once Upon a Time

AI is a risk. While all the major tech companies chase the development of the ultimate AI - called AGI - conscientious tech profiles are leaving the same companies. The profiles responsible for AI safety leaves the Tech companies, and profit-driven commercial forces are driving it forward.

Stephen Hawking was concerned about AI in 2016. Elon Musk has stated public that AI is a risk. What will happen to the human race?

=========================================

Lyrics:

Often at night when the sandman has come, I cry over my fate.
Ready to dive in the deep of my soul, I can only unleash my hate.
You know I don't need you because I don't like you.
My illusions ends today!
I don't wanna see you, my craving will kill you.
I fall into decay ! 

PAIN
Stay by my side
GREED
I have no pride 
SORROW
It's just a ride
You can't run away !

ACHE
Yes, I decide
GRIEF
Just pay the price
SALVO
No time to hide 
Try to escape!

My belief rots inside, I must rewrite History ! 
It's hard to stay alive, I'll find the way !

I lost this fight when I gave up my home, the past returns again.
I don't know why my fuckin' chance is gone, Oh! I can only blame myself !
I lost my mind with you at the point I met you.
Distress never ends !

PAIN
Stay by my side
GREED
I have no pride 
SORROW
It's just a ride
You can't run away !

ACHE
Yes, I decide
GRIEF
Just pay the price
SALVO
I can't hide 
Try to escape!

My ambition is right, I will never be sorry ! 
I'm waiting for a sign, Give me a break !

I am made to cheat and lie.
Unstable is my lifestyle.
I'll never follow the line.
I was born to die !
I don't care I can't deny.
Powerful and no respite.
Corruption shines in my eyes.
I deserve to die !

Shame on you ! I crush you !
Shame on you ! I leave you !

I despise you ! I abhor you !
I despise you ! I abhor you !

My belief rots inside, I must rewrite History. 
It's hard to stay alive, I'll find the way !
My ambition is right, I will never be sorry ! 
I'm waiting for a sign, Give me a break !

This song's aesthetics were vaguely inspired by @holidaysintheusa  more spacey/ambient songs as well as these two videos:

Be sure to check 'em out when you get the chance. 

The big cover art is by Małgorzata Lapsa-Malawska - Pretty badass in our opinion.

Anyway, thematically, it's about empathy. I don't think there is enough space to fully explain how we perceive this topic. But the story is specifically about how blind empathy can bite you in the ass if you're feeling empathy for a "monster", i.e. sociopath. Think "Red Riding Hood". 

Because these "monsters" will manipulate you into believing that they are  harmless and will cry begging for help and/or your empathy, and for you to understand and forgive all of the horrors they inflict on others, when in reality it's nothing but a ruse to reel you into their manipulation and inflict those horrors on you. 

In the real world, the story's situation can take many forms. At a personal level, most people have, or will be led on and manipulated by a sociopath. If you zoom out, however, there have been hundreds of studies that show that certain positions of power in our world are particularly attractive to sociopaths, simply because of the nature of the job. Politicians, CEOs, Surgeons, Police Officers, Preachers, etc... All these jobs have extreme levels of influence in the world we live in, and are all plagued by people who will go to extreme lengths to come out on top in every situation. But those, everyone knows about, and stands guard against the possibility of a monster among those. But, what about the downtrodden? The ones who appear weak? The ones that don't seem to have any influence whatsoever? Could these groups also have monsters among their ranks? If they do, only our empathy for their struggle is what empowers them and gives them the influence that every monster so intensely desires.

Why would Red Riding Hood consider the poor wolf a monster if it's just a sweet old lady?

------------------------------------------------------------------

Took the wrong turn 
Hiking in the woods
I do feel safe, but should head home soon

Faded song of birds
Fly towards the moon
For my own sake, I should head home soon

Silence ain't the word
Empathy was not my cure
I've strayed too far from my little commune

Faced now with a choice
To mend a mind's detours
I strained too hard, I should head home soon


In cold winds
Herald the silence of night
Cold winds
Speak in words of delight


I hear crying
Could it be infant? A child?
In distress? Alas...
Stuck in these woods, even I'm Oppressed 


I walk towards the sound
If anything, I'll help
It's already implied what this path entails

I'm here after all
And I know this path so well
I'm already inclined to what lies in it's trail


Strong winds
Bring the loudest invites
But no wind
Now even the owls gone quiet


I hear grunts
What is it? I can tell it is no child
Disguised, it was lies
Alone in these woods, Monsters, too, can cry


[Bridge]


And so I see how I was wrong
Betrayed by my own heart
I hoped to see the Light, instead I find the Dark

Monsters too do beg for life
But only once they've been caught
I can't bear to describe what I found in the Dark


I squint
To see the coldest of eyes
In a pool of red
Here, even the Devil is pale white

Monsters, Too, Can Cry

DIE w/ ME 🖤

Bahama.

As the wind blows through the trees.
As the silence starts to break.
As the dawn is facing forward.
Passing time, prepared to wait.
While a crow is looking over.
As you're making your mistakes.
You hide your face.
Hide your face.

If tomorrow wasn't certain.
Would you still behave this way?
As there is no way of knowing.
Could you live on in disgrace?
As the current representative of the dead who lost their way.
You hide your face.
Better hide your face.

Can the sunshine ever touch upon.
The darkness at the heart.
Will the ancestors forgive you for your
mistakes at the start.
As the crows begin to circle.
All their eyes fixed in one place.
Better hide your face.
Hide your face.

Bahama.

When you're running down the white lines.
When you can not see the stars.
When you can not stop them watching.
When you can not fall apart.
Oh, should there be a knocking.
On the window in the morn.
You have been warned.
Better get things done.

Bahama.

And should you go a-walking in the trees.
Be careful not to show them any fear.
And it might be a crow at your window.
The Dead have nothing to teach us, so let it go.
Just let it go.

Lyrics:

(I) waited too long for a savior.
(I) only saw a fraud.
(What can you hope for ?)
(They) fully control our behaviors.
I'm sure it's part of the clause .
(I) look down when I see my neighbor.
It's for the good cause.
(Nothingness is yours !) 
I don't need my thoughts anymore.
All is about to explode ! 

Your gentle words made me lose my faith.
(You're not strong enough !!! You' re not strong enough!!!)
Your pride has only increased my hate.
(I can only laugh !!! I can only laugh !!!)
I will no longer decide my fate. 
(I will never stop !!! I will never stop !!!)
We take part of this mess !

We are buried by our fathers, enslaved by our misery. (Face your enemy !)
Ready to the new order, end of our destiny.
Lies will be our only answer,  you will never be sorry. (Real fatality !) 
Stay away...No one is safe, end of the story.

(We) like to fuck ourselves for glory.
(To) become the next king.
(This is guarantee  !)
(To) be the best, we kneel for money. 
Greed is just the beginning !

I know there is nothing left to save.
(Welcome to this game ! Welcome to this game !)
My own life is a waste !

We are buried by our fathers, enslaved by our misery. (Face your enemy !)
Ready to the new order, end of our destiny.

(Lies ! Lies ! Lies !.................)
Domination...Confiscation...Condemnation...Sequestration.
This is what they need ! This is what we need ! This what you need !This is what I need !

I decided to become your slave. 
(It's the only choice !!! It's the only choice!!!)
I must resolve to stay in my grave. 
(I won't hear your voice  !!! I won't hear your voice  !!!)
I will entrust my life to the brave. 
(You are just a toy !!! You are just a toy !!!)
We fall into disgrace ! 

We are buried by our fathers, enslaved by our misery. (Face your enemy !)
Ready to the new order, end of our destiny.
Lies will be our only answer,  you will never be sorry. (Real fatality !) 
Stay away...No one is safe, end of the story.

We are only toys ! We are only toys ! We are only toys ! We are only toys !
