No chance of Ei being as big as Ai says World Housewives Association, as men won’t iron at home, let alone in a volcano.

Artificial Intelligence (Ai) can breathe easy for now, with the World Wives Association saying Extreme Ironing (Ei), 'poses no threat to it whatsoever.'

Ei has taken off in recent years, particularly the women's circuit, with contestant numbers growing from 14 in 2001 to 26 in 2025.

Locations have also become more extreme, with the top of the Eiffel Tower pending approval to become the final round location for this year's Women's Extreme Ironing League.

But World Housewives Association chairperson Agnes Simmons has poured cold water on the sport's progression, saying Ei, 'poses no threat to Ai, Oi, Ui or any other kind of i.'

'The Ei Union pushed for the Eiffel Tower thing not to increase the extremities of competition, nor to take over Ai as a global powerhouse, but because all 26 female competitors will never be proposed to at the top of the Tower, and just want to see what it looks like from up there.'

Ei World Number One Eve Weaver slammed Ms Simmons comments as, 'complete lies,' saying Ei was gaining on Ai, as The World Ironing League almost got a men's Ei competition up this year.

'We just didn't get enough applicants,' Ms Weaver said.

Weaver's husband Les said he applied, but only because his wife said she wouldn't have sex with him ever again if he didn't.

'It was a massive relief when only two other blokes applied,' Mr Weaver said. 'Not just because of the sex thing, but because they wanted to us to do extreme ironing inside an active volcano. How stupid.

'Maybe make us iron on the sideline of the Super Bowl, then I might be interested.'

An image of a man happy that he's ironing, because he's on the sideline at the SuperBowl.

Terry Yang, an Ai expert with 40 years experience, described the Ai/Ei debate as 'pointless.'

'Ai and Ei have nothing in common,' Yang said. 'Every one of the 12.6 billion man, child and robot on the earth could do Ei, and Ai wouldn't give a s***. It would still be taking over.'

There are currently 8.2 billion humans on the earth, meaning that by Yang's assessment, there are 4.4 billion robots. This number has not yet been fact checked.
