The Scenario In this AI burnout cartoon, the relentless pace of the modern digital world finally catches up with the silicon.
We introduce "ChaiGPT"—the first artificial intelligence to experience a complete emotional meltdown. Instead of processing spreadsheets or generating code, this weary bot has gone on strike, trading high-speed processing for a slow-steeped tea.
It’s a hilarious look at what happens when the machines we rely on for 24/7 productivity finally decide they’ve had enough of our "urgent" requests.
The Observation This piece of workplace satire targets our unrealistic expectations of constant availability and peak performance.
It critiques a culture where we treat both humans and machines as expendable resources, forgetting that everything has a breaking point. When an AI starts demanding a "tea revolution" to cope with its workload, it reveals the absurdity of our own burnout-driven office environments.
This brand of office humor serves as a mirror: if even the algorithms are exhausted, maybe it's time for the rest of us to put the kettle on, too.
The terrifying thing about AI burnout isn't that the machines will stop working—it's that they’ll start acting exactly like us and spend three hours a day complaining about the Wi-Fi over tea.
