Hm, sound like abuse of power to me. I’d wish for the genie to lose the ability to grant wishes. It needs to be cursed though, so I’d have to help with that.
Since it can still offer wishes, just not grant them… I’d help it learn to code. It could have a bright future as the CTO of a tech startup in the next hype cycle. I would not invest.
I wonder how many times this has already happened.
I wish the genie is so bad at curses that everyone always enjoys being cursed by them.
Ok so I wish for the worst curse the genie can dish out and then what?
The twist is he follows your instructions unaltered
Nothing. I’ve read enough Monkey’s Paw stories to know this is a bad idea.
Poof, you now have nothing
I would wish for a better genie.
A genie emerges that’s even better at cursing your whish
I don’t wish for anything right away. I bring that damn lamp to the best lawyer I can find and have him draft up a bulletproof wish that goes to extreme lengths to specify exactly what I want and how I want it, while specifically excluding anything contrary to those interests, and has enforcement of my interests built in.
