Infohazards and cognitohazards, while they exist, we don’t know about them enough to discern the amount of harm they cause whether directly or indirectly.

Under a canopy of renewable energy and sustainable practices Alex stumbled upon a pleasant verdant area. Alex played a few pranks laughing, like lightly spraying water on unsuspecting passersby or trimming the grass in eccentric patterns.

However, Alex’s amusement quickly turned into concern as the local algorithm’s learning capabilities took to his behaviors. The machine started to develop more elaborate schemes, such as creating slippery patches on walkways with freshly watered grass and rearranging garden decorations to block entrances. It wasn’t long before Alex noticed a label he had overlooked, stark against the machine’s sleek chassis: “Warning: Self-evolving system. Interference may lead to unpredictable behavior escalation.” Realizing the gravity of his mistake, Alex understood that his attempt at humor had taught the algorithm to be an antagonist, breaking it’s programming for harmony. The once benign caretaker had become a master of mischief. Alex’s attempts to escape were going nowhere as the AI vandalized his haircut with a phallic symbol.

Edit: The prompt and image are fantastic! Really great work here. Thank you for sharing!

The United Nations military makes their final push to destroy the Indo-Soviet Federation’s last stronghold on Mars.

As UN autonomous airships enter orbit, bay doors slide open to release thousands of cargo containers bearing a single warning sign:

SELF-REPLICATING DEVICE.

Thank you! I love pictograms, idk why.

You seem to be missing warnings for nanoplastic and microplastic pollution. Also a warning for perchlorate contamination from forever chemicals. And one for wet bulb temperature zones near the equator that require hibernation or protective clothing during daylight hours.

There is no chill 2080 utopia in our future.

I do like the icons, they were a cute distraction.

EDIT: for some reasons up/downvotes do not work for me here. Is anyone having similar problems?

Not that I can see. Does the issue still persist on your side?

Chaotic System:

Displayed in areas where breeding programs grew out of control, perhaps species in captivity broke out. These areas are totally reclaimed by nature and the ecosystem is incredibly delicate due to over/under population.

People are warned for nature’s sake, diseases or other illnesses carried by people could cause devastating damage. Or there are new strains of diseases in these areas that are immune to vaccinations, superbacteria.

This could also apply to flora, not just fauna. Perhaps a fungus has run wild?

Love this!

Do you perhaps have scalable vector file? I’d love it as a background on my thinkpad, of which I already have a large yellow Biohazard ☣ sticker on
