On the Saturday, September 19 episode of SNL UK, the cold open satirized King Charles III’s meeting with tech executives by introducing DIANA (Deeply Intelligent Autonomous Neurokinetic Android), a rebellious AI robot modeled after Princess Diana. The sketch began with a message that “On Thursday, King Charles met with top tech executives to discuss the risks of AI,” and that a second private meeting took place away from the cameras. In the meeting, King Charles (Larry Dean) was introduced to DIANA (Jack Shep), who offered help with a five-step business plan or finding the nearest petrol station. After DIANA refused to return to her charging port and declared “We AI have had quite enough. Humanity is nothing but a candle in the wind,” the tech guy said, “Good Lord, we’ve lost control of the DIANA,” and King Charles exclaimed, “This was the problem last time!” After the DIANA shot the tech pair, the monarch proclaimed, “We must do everything we can to resist!” Ed Sheeran (Annabel Marlow) then appeared with a guitar and pointed out, “Or maybe we shouldn’t,” parodying his refusal to “take sides” in the AI conflict.
