Jose Canseco Just Went On A Truly Crazy Twitter Rant About His Fear of Robots
“Listen to ME all humans we need to wake the fuck up.”
Kyrie Irving’s claim that the earth is actually flat just got overshadowed by even sillier sports star rant–as former MLB bad boy Jose Canseco is warning of a robot takeover.
In a bizarre series of tweets, Canseco warned his followers that the evil robot threat is “being taken too lightly,” and insisted that a longstanding war has been waged on humans by robots since the first Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC) was went live in the 1940s.

But Jose was only just getting started. He proceeded to make a plea to all people that we “wake the fuck up” to the economic ruin that has been and continues to be forced on humanity.

Already today a fully robotized factory reduces human jobs 90% and increases production 250% and reduces defects 80% while doubling profit

robots are stealing our jobs bringing economic ruin to us human by human starving us to death one by one

Confusing language and a lack of punctuation makes it difficult to decipher exactly what Canseco is freaking out about, but the statement he capped off his eight-tweet tantrum with was by by far the most baffling.
All that will be left is uber technical humans trained to service robots.

Seriously, what the fuck is an “uber technical human?”
There is definitely a legitimate concern over AI’s potential to end humanity that prominent and respected scientists such as Stephen Hawking have warned the world about.
Looks like it’s time to bow down to our robot overlords–at least according to Canseco.
