Robotics


In three-sided war–
animal, plant, mineral–
minerals winning.

AI is still science fiction, despite what the marketers would like you to believe
But I like the idea of a three sided war.
Animals vs plants - there are plants that have evolved thorns, poisonous sap, etc to deter from being eaten by animals. The Australian outback is the world’s biggest wasteland, strewn with inedible spinoff. Well, practically inedible. I understand some aboriginal tribes derive nourishment from the seeds. And animals of course war on plants.
Plants warring on Minerals is easy. Plants take over everything, even worthless leached, iron rich soil.

Minerals warring on animals is the interesting bit.

Overall, nice and pithy. I like it.
