Description

Here’s a detailed description of the comic panel:

Panel 1:

• A woman with dark hair and a black jacket stands to the left, looking unimpressed.
• Next to her, a second woman has wavy dark green hair and glasses. She appears frustrated and is sitting in front of a computer.
• The dialogue reads: "Dammit, I don't get this AI. It keeps outputting chemical variations on strychnine."

Panel 2:

• The first woman asks, "What’d you program it to do? Drug discovery?"
• The second woman replies, "Create a new fuel for CO₂ emissions reduction."

Panel 3:

• The first woman looks slightly confused while the second woman, maintaining her serious expression, states, "You underspecified what the fuel was going into."

Panel 4:

• The first woman now looks more concerned as she glances at the second woman.
• A figure sitting at a desk in the background comments, "Boy, the AI revolution is gonna suck."

Overall Aesthetic: The art style is simplistic and uses pastel colors, with a focus on the characters' facial expressions to convey their emotions throughout the dialogue. The comic captures a humorous take on miscommunication regarding technology.
