Humanity invented the assembly line and the first thing we did was have a huge war with the rest of humanity.

Humanity invented the atomic bomb, and the first thing we did was drop it on humanity, twice.

Humanity invented the Internet, and the first thing we did was figure out how to censor humanity.

Now humanity has invented AI, a queryable sum of all human knowledge, and the first thing we do is try to manipulate humanity with it.

I don't really know for assembly line and the atomic bomb, but for internet and AI the first thing we did is porn.

Well, theoretically you can use assembly lines for making dildos.
