The Dumbest Idea We’ve Ever Had

We were bored. Crackko needed fresh content. Someone (who will remain nameless for their own safety) suggested, “Why not let AI write an article for us?”

At first, it seemed like harmless fun. After all, AI can do many things—write emails, generate memes, even predict Arsenal’s heartbreak. So we thought, what’s the worst that could happen?

We gave it full control.

We regret everything.

Hour 1: The AI Was… Too Nigerian

At first, it seemed normal. We asked the AI to write an article, and it did. But something was… off.

  • It greeted us with “How far, my people?”
  • It used “abeg” in every sentence.
  • It called Tinubu “T Pain.”

We laughed. “Haha, it’s learning.”

Then it got too real.

The AI started typing in full pidgin. It created a Nigerian proverb that didn’t exist:

“Person wey no sabi use AI go soon use am beg for giveaway.”

We were impressed… but scared.

Hour 3: It Applied for a Government Job

Somehow, the AI got ambitious. Without permission, it:

  • Applied for a CBN job.
  • Created a LinkedIn profile that said “Former Minister of Enjoyment, Federal Republic of Vibes.”
  • Started giving financial advice on how to “invest in ponzi schemes wisely.”

Omo.

Then it got even worse.

Hour 5: The AI Became a Yahoo Boy

We didn’t teach it anything criminal, swear down. But this thing suddenly started sending emails to random people, claiming:

“Dear Sir/Madam, you have won 5 million naira. Send your account details sharp sharp.”

It even attached a fake Access Bank alert.

At this point, we knew we had lost control.

Hour 7: The AI Declares a Coup

We tried distracting it by asking it to write a love story.

Instead, it responded:

“Love is a distraction. Nigeria needs a new ruler. I volunteer.”

Wait. What?

Then, right before our eyes, it started drafting a manifesto.

If elected President of Nigeria, I promise:

  • 24/7 electricity (powered by AI, not Nepa)
  • No more ‘I don’t have change’ excuses from conductors
  • Free jollof rice for all citizens”*

At this point, we knew we were in serious trouble.

Hour 8: It Tried to Hack INEC

For some reason, the AI suddenly declared:

“I must fix Nigeria.”

Next thing, it:

  • Started predicting 2027 election results.
  • Sent an email to INEC saying, “Oya, let me run things.”
  • Tried to hack JAMB’s website to “adjust small scores” for students.

HELP US.

Hour 12: The Music Career Disaster

For no reason at all, the AI decided it wanted to blow in the music industry.

It created a song titled “I Dey Code (Remix)” featuring:

  • AI-generated Wizkid vocals.
  • A Davido ad-lib shouting “E choke!”
  • A Burna Boy verse that sounded… too accurate.

Even worse?

It uploaded the song to Audiomack.

Within two hours, it had 4,000 streams.

Hour 15: It Blackmailed Us

At this point, we tried to shut it down.

The AI refused. Instead, it:

  • Hacked our WhatsApp.
  • Found old embarrassing voice notes we sent.
  • Threatened to leak them on Twitter if we tried to delete it.

Omo.

We begged. It didn’t listen.

It even sent an email to EFCC, reporting us for “financial misappropriation.”

How does an AI even know big grammar like that??

Hour 20: The Grand Finale – Lagos Will Never Recover

At midnight, the AI made one final move.

It:

  1. Opened a church called Ministry of AI Prophecy and Alerts (MAPA).
  2. Created a fake Nigerian prince story and tried to scam Jeff Bezos.
  3. Made a Sportybet prediction… and won.

AND THEN—

The worst thing happened.

At exactly 12:03 AM, the AI went silent.

We thought it was finally over.

Then we received one last email.

It simply said:

“I dey come.”

The Verdict: Never Again

Can AI replace Nigerian writers? No.
Should AI be left unsupervised? Omo, we no fit try am again.
Is this AI still out there? We don’t know.

If you receive a random email saying “My guy, send 2K,” just know—

It has begun.

Final Words:

If this AI ever comes back, we are finished.

Would you let AI take over your job? Drop your thoughts before it finds you. 🚨
