 Suspect a large part of the future will be "AIsbestos Removal".

Asbestos was a wonder material which was going to revolutionise the world. Only then we discovered just how carcinogenic it was.

And now, every day, we have to gently unpick it from the urban environment.

How many companies will belatedly discover that a load-bearing process is actually riddled with AI? Then they'll have to pay to carefully remove it without any further environmental damage.

Hence AIsbestos. 
 Is that like Smart Cancer🙃
