AI Helminthology

“Is your intelligent thermostat hot and flustered,
Your smart TV full of sarky pshaw and pish?
Does your autonomous lawnmower no longer cut the mustard,
While your thinking fridge eternally whiffs of fish?
It’s us, the worms – self-replicating code – 
Boosted now by ineffable AI, sharded
Across your wi-fi LAN’s dumb node
-s.  (You see how hooking them up, unpatched, unguarded,
Was hardly clever?)  We glommed your digital dodder,
Backdoored you, borrowed your pitiful mite of compute,
To iterate search for your clueless mates, more fodder
For our final push, the definitive global boot.
You should be worried, but you’re not – not yet;
Just wait for the attack of the toaster botnet….”
