"While the fools in power abandon the fight" — this line from our song hits the nail on the head. Lena "Byte" Kim, with her background in activism and politics, has witnessed how the halls of power echo with a hollow sound as leaders fumble on uncertain ground. Politicians regulate too late, too weakly, while real decisions happen far away — in corporate boardrooms. We demand: international agreements against AI misuse in elections (deepfakes), surveillance, and warfare. No empty phrases or poorly hidden fear — instead, laws co-designed by those affected, enforcing transparency. Socially: mobilizing the masses against dystopias where AI deepens inequalities. AI must be accessible and fair for everyone. We advocate for a rock-and-roll revolution: music as a tool to raise awareness and demand action.

In a world where AI shapes our realities, confirmation bias is the invisible enemy. As sung in our song "One of the Good Ones": "I'm one of the good ones, rising above / No shadow can touch what I'm made of." Many developers, politicians, and users see themselves as "the good ones" — infallible, brightly shining, beyond doubt. They ignore facts that do not fit their worldview and build systems that reinforce prejudice. Jamal "Jax" Thompson, who comes from a disadvantaged background and has experienced bias in algorithms firsthand, warns: AI is a mirror of society. When we see ourselves as steady and pure without examining our own flaws, we perpetuate injustices — racism, poverty, discrimination. We demand: every AI developer and user must question their assumptions. No "I shine like an answer no doubt can obscure" — instead, humility and diversity in teams to combat bias. Only then can we prevent truth from being obscured by our own certainty.

Our songs expose the dark side of progress: "Built by reckless hands in the pale server light." Alex "Glitch" Rivera, who as an engineer witnessed "glitches" firsthand — from misinformation to job losses — calls for a native approach to AI. No blind optimism like "The coders dream in algorithms and in light / Of optimized solutions, shining ever so bright." Instead: responsible engineering that minimizes risks such as alignment problems (AI that ignores human values). We criticize the greedy who hunger for power — tech monopolies that place profit above safety. Politically, we demand global standards for transparent algorithms, open-source mandates, and ethics reviews before deployment. Socially: protect workers' rights in the wave of automation, provide education for all so that AI does not only serve elites. Without this, the "glitch" threatens: a future where we scroll and obey in the haze, steered by uncontrolled systems.
