Is there a real source to this or is there a joke that flew over my head?

It's a parody of the hype around AI, particularly the "AI discovers faster sorting algorithm" news from last week. Full (satirical) source.

The "tongues" sounds like Rick and Morty aliens talking. Lol

yes, i can quickly sort these people into the loony bin and move on with my day without wasting a single moment listening to what they have to say. Such a time-saver!

So doesn't O(nlog(n)) = O(nlog(n)/10)? I guess you'd want the faster one all things being equal, but is that part of the joke?
