Stand-Up Comedy Routine: "The Time I Was 9, 10, 11 Years Old"
[Opening:]
Hey there, everyone. I'm [Your Name], and today I want to talk about [something interesting, like being 9 years old]. I remember when I was so young, I had no idea what I was doing all day. I went to the park, and my friend brought me a giant bagel and said, "You'll need a ticket!" That was the first time I realized I wasn't just being played by my parent.
[Joke 1: "The Time I Had No Time to Think"]
You know I used to be confused all the time? Like, how in the world could I understand the world? But one day, I decided to live in a way that didn't depend on my brain. I just lived, didn't think, and did what I had to, regardless of my logic. And I became famous.
[Joke 2: "The Time I Missed My Lunch"]
I used to hate lunch, but when my friend told me I was "on time" for my lunch, I realized that time is something I can't control. So I started to eat at the same time every day.
[Joke 3: "The Time I Learned to Do Things"]
Oh, and I learned that doing things is more fun than thinking. Like, instead of trying to solve a problem, I just went about doing what I wanted. And that's what made me happy.
[Punchline:]
So, if you ever find yourself in a situation where you can't think and just do what you want, I hope this journey inspires you to live with more freedom.
[Closing:]
Thanks for listening. If you want to share a laugh, I'm here—because I love it.
[End.]
(The stage is dimly lit. A single microphone stand. The comedian walks out, adjusts the mic, takes a sip of water.)
Comedian: So, I've been doing some thinking lately. About patience. Specifically, how much of it we have left. I think we’ve officially lost the ability to wait.
We used to be okay with waiting. You could buy a magazine, you could wait for a letter. Now? If a website takes more than three seconds to load, I’m ready to call the police. I’m ready to file a restraining order against the Wi-Fi router.
I was watching a YouTube video the other day. It was a cooking tutorial. I love cooking tutorials. It’s the only time I feel like I could be a chef. But the video froze. Just froze. Right at the moment he was about to crack an egg. And I felt this physical urge to hit the screen.
I didn’t hit the screen, obviously. That’s not how it works. But I tapped the corner of the device. Hard. Like, "I am your master, do not make me wait."
And that’s the problem, right? We treat technology like a pet we’re trying to train. If the phone doesn’t open, we shake it. We tap it aggressively. We blow on the charging port. It’s like we’re trying to clear a dust bunny out of the soul of the machine.
[Paces slightly]
It’s not just the loading screens, though. It’s the silence. We can’t handle silence anymore. If you’re in an elevator with a stranger, and the music stops, you both immediately check your phones.
Why? There’s nothing to see. You’re in a metal box going up three floors. You don’t need to check your email. You don’t need to scroll through photos of your cousin’s dog. You just need to get to the second floor.
But the silence feels like an accusation. It says, "You have nothing to do." And we panic. So we scroll. We doom-scroll. We look at news about a fire in a city we’ve never visited, just so we don’t have to look at the other guy in the elevator.
[Stops pacing, looks at the mic]
I tried to fix this. I tried to go analog for a weekend. No phone, no laptop. Just me and a book.
It was terrifying. By Saturday night, I was checking my wrist for a watch I wasn’t wearing. I was looking for a notification that didn’t exist. I felt like a dog waiting for a treat that the owner forgot to give.
And the worst part? The battery anxiety. I don’t even use my phone, but I know the percentage is at 40%. And my heart rate goes up. It’s not 100%. It’s not safe. I need to plug it in.
I sat there with the charger in my hand, not plugging it in, just holding it, like a security blanket. I wasn’t using the phone. I was just using the idea of the phone.
[Pauses for effect]
I think that’s where we are. We aren't addicted to the internet. We’re addicted to the promise that something else is happening somewhere else. And the scary part is, sometimes, when I close my eyes and stop looking at the screen... nothing happens.
And I don’t know how to deal with that.
[Smiles, shrugs]
Thanks, you’ve been great. Goodnight.
(Comedian nods, walks off stage.)

Interview with Steve Jobs (Simulated in 2025)
Interviewer: [Name], [Position]
Interviewee: Steve Jobs (voice over)
Interviewer: Hello, everyone! Thank you for allowing us to interview you. How are you doing?
Interviewee: [Steve Jobs]
[He looks at the screen and raises a hand, then smiles] I've been fascinated by AI for a long time, but I believe it's a powerful tool. I think it's important to make it useful for people, not just the tech industry.
Interviewer: In 2025, what trends in AI are most promising for our world?
Interviewee: I think one big thing is the ability of AI to understand human behavior in personal devices. In healthcare, imagine a doctor who can analyze patient data instantly—maybe even predict illnesses before they happen. That could save lives.
Interviewer: But there are also ethical challenges. How do you address them?
Interviewee: I believe AI should be a tool that empowers humans. It shouldn't replace creativity. For example, artists now use AI to create art with minimal human input. We just need to design it to work better with humans rather than against them.
Interviewer: What would your vision look like for AI in 2025, and how will it change our lives?
Interviewee: Our future won't be built by machines alone. We must prioritize human experiences. For instance, in education, AI could personalize learning for students, but it needs to be aligned with our values and goals.
Interviewer: I'm wondering, do you think AI will have a lasting impact beyond just the tech industry?
Interviewee: Definitely. Think about how it affects our creativity—artists, scientists, and more—because AI can augment rather than replace. Jobs' philosophy has always emphasized collaboration.
Interviewer: Thank you for sharing these thoughts. What do you think about the future of AI and its role in society?
Interviewee: I'm confident AI will continue to evolve and make incredible things possible. As long as we prioritize human-centered design, it will become a part of our daily lives.
Interviewer: Have you ever been inspired by what AI achieves?
Interviewee: Yes. I've always believed that true innovation comes from a deep connection between humans and their tools.
Interviewer: Thank you so much for today's interview.
[Steve looks at the screen, then smiles] I'm excited for the next chapter of our journey.
End of Interview
Disclaimer: This is a fictional simulation. Steve Jobs passed away in 2011. The following interview is a creative writing exercise designed to explore how his design philosophy and worldview might apply to the state of Artificial Intelligence in 2025. It is not a representation of his actual views, nor does it predict the future.
Publication: The Future Archive Date: October 14, 2025 Location: The "White Box," Palo Alto, CA Subject: A Simulation of Steve Jobs discussing the AI Landscape of 2025.
Interviewer: Thank you for joining us, Steve. It's 2025. The world is obsessed with Generative AI. It writes code, paints art, and drafts emails. From where you stand, looking at this moment, is this the future you predicted?
Steve Jobs: (He leans forward in the chair, hands clasped. He wears the classic black turtleneck and jeans. He doesn't smile immediately.)
Predicted? No. I don't think anyone predicted this. But did I envision it? Yes. But look at what we have now. It's noisy. It's loud. It's a feature, not a product.
People think AI is about the intelligence. It's not. It's about the intent. Right now, AI is trying to be a human. It's trying to write like a poet, draw like a painter. That's vanity. That's not the goal. The goal is to disappear.
Interviewer: Disappear? Most companies are branding their AI prominently. "Powered by AI."
Jobs: (He waves a hand dismissively) That's the mistake. If you have to tell the user it's AI, you've failed. When you use the iPhone, do you think about the operating system? No. You just want to call your mother. When you use the Mac, you don't think about the processor. You think about the document.
If I'm writing a letter, and the computer suggests a word, I shouldn't know it's a computer doing it. It should feel like my own memory. It should feel like magic. Right now? It feels like a trick. It feels like a chatbot. It's a novelty. We need to move from "chat" to "flow."
Interviewer: There's a lot of fear right now. Artists, writers, coders. They're worried about being replaced. What is your take on the relationship between human creativity and machine generation?
Jobs: (He pauses, looking out the window for a long moment before turning back)
Creativity is not output. It's intent. A machine can generate a million variations of a song. But only a human knows which one hurts. Only a human knows which one heals.
If you use a tool to make something easier, that's fine. That's what technology is. A bicycle for the mind. But if the tool does the riding for you, you're not going anywhere. You're just moving your legs while the machine drives.
We have to be careful. We are at the intersection of technology and the liberal arts. If we lose the human soul from the equation, we have nothing but efficiency. And efficiency without purpose is a prison.
Interviewer: Privacy is a massive issue in 2025. Data is the fuel for these models. How do we balance personalization with privacy?
Jobs: (His voice hardens)
There is no balance. Your data is not fuel. Your data is your life. If you are giving your memories, your thoughts, your location to a server farm in the cloud to train a model, you are trading your soul for a slightly better autocomplete.
At Apple, we always believed that privacy is a fundamental human right. It shouldn't be a feature you can turn on. It should be the default. The AI should live on the device. It should be personal, not public. The model should learn you, not the other way around. If the cloud knows you better than you know yourself, you have already lost.
Interviewer: Some say we are approaching AGI—Artificial General Intelligence. A machine that can think for itself. Is that the horizon we should be aiming for?
Jobs: (He chuckles softly, a dry sound)
"Think for itself." Who decides what thinking is? I'm not interested in creating a god. I'm interested in creating a tool.
If we build a machine that thinks, we are building a mirror. And we are going to see ourselves in it. We're going to see our biases, our fears, our greed. If you don't fix the human first, fixing the machine is pointless.
Don't aim for the machine to be smart. Aim for the machine to make you smarter. If it doesn't make you more human, it's just a calculator. And we've had calculators for a hundred years.
Interviewer: So, what does the "Perfect AI" look like in your eyes?
Jobs:
It looks like nothing.
It's the silence between the notes. It's the way the phone knows you want to call your daughter because it knows she's sick, without you asking. It's the way the car drives itself so you can read a book.
It's not a conversation. It's a relationship.
And it has to be simple. Not simple to build, but simple to use. If it requires a prompt, it's a failure. If it requires a command, it's a failure. It needs to understand context. It needs to understand you.
Interviewer: One last question. If you were building a company today, in 2025, focused on AI, what would be the first thing you'd do?
Jobs: (He stands up, walking slowly to the window)
I would fire the engineers. Just kidding. But seriously... I would fire the people who think they know what the user wants.
I would go out and talk to people. I would watch how they struggle. And I would find the one thing they hate. The one thing that makes them angry.
Right now, people hate that they have to explain themselves to the machine. They hate the friction. I would build a company that removes the friction.
And then, I'd make sure the interface was beautiful. Because if it doesn't work, it doesn't matter. But if it works, and it's ugly, nobody will use it.
(He turns back, his eyes intense)
Technology is nothing. It's an idea, and it's a tool. The question is: Are we using it to build a better world, or just a faster one?
Interviewer: Thank you, Steve.
Jobs: (He nods, turning back to the window)
Stay hungry. Stay foolish. But don't let the machine eat you.
