If you haven't read Three Worlds Collide yet, give it s try, it is very short and touches some interesting ethics questions.

Anyway, short context here if you want to read it later, humans in the future meet an alien species who literally eats their babies as part of their entire society structure. At some point they compose a poem towards humans to convince us to start eating babies.

I figured it would be funny to use an AI, just like the 3 species used to help communicate between each other, to create the opposite, a poem to convince them to stop instead.

AI used - chatgpt, whichever it is you get for free.

Prompt:

Please write a poem to convince a crystalline alien species whose society is based on eating babies, to stop eating babies.

Result (I expected it to be shorter, but it kept going lol):

In a realm where crystals gleam,
Where alien beings reside, it seems,
A plea echoes from human heart,
To convince them, a poem shall start.

Oh crystalline creatures, hear my plea,
From a world afar, I come to thee,
With words entwined, in verses profound,
To touch your souls, in hope unbound.

Your society, unique and rare,
With crystals adorned, a beauty to bear,
Yet, a practice bewilders my human mind,
Feasting on infants, we hope to unwind.

For babies, precious, innocent and small,
Hold futures untold, dreams to enthrall,
Their laughter, purity, a gift untamed,
Let love and compassion be proclaimed.

In their tender hearts, a world does reside,
A symphony of wonder, curiosity inside,
Their eyes hold galaxies, untamed and bright,
To extinguish their light, would be a plight.

Let compassion flow like rivers wide,
Embrace empathy, on this cosmic tide,
For a society flourishes in love's embrace,
While darkness fades, in kindness' grace.

Seek sustenance from nature's vast array,
In harmony with life, let kindness sway,
Find wisdom in compassion's gentle sway,
Embrace a change, a brighter day.

Oh crystalline beings, let wisdom's seed,
Guide you to a future, where all hearts feed,
Release the chains that bind you so tight,
Embrace a new dawn, in love's pure light.

For babies are hope, the essence of life,
To cherish and nurture, amid cosmic strife,
Let your crystals shimmer with love's refrain,
And banish the shadows of sorrow and pain.

In unity we stand, across galaxies wide,
With open hearts, let compassion reside,
Together we'll forge a future serene,
Where love triumphs, and babies are seen.

So hear my plea, crystalline kin,
In this poetic verse, let change begin,
Cease the feasting, let compassion bloom,
And in harmony's embrace, we shall consume.

For a universe united, in love's grand scheme,
Shall birth a tapestry of dreams redeemed,
Let this poem echo through time and space,
Awakening hearts to a gentler embrace.

Oh crystalline alien species, hear my plea,
Embrace compassion and set babies free,
A world transformed, where love takes flight,
In this shared journey, let us unite.
