AI can't "want" things - they're machines.

A meme showing a popular image of a young woman passionately talking into the ear of a young man at a crowded outdoor event. The man looks uncomfortable and uninterested, staring straight ahead while the woman gestures energetically. Overlaid text reads: • At the top right: “AI CAN’T ‘WANT’ THINGS - THEY’RE MACHINES.” • At the bottom: ”…LIKE IN TERMINATOR, WHEN THE AI WANTS TO…” The humor comes from the contradiction: the woman insists AI can’t have desires but immediately gives an example of AI “wanting” something, referencing the movie Terminator.
