Tonight's episode of the long-running animated satire, South Park, now known as South America, is set to feature tech billionaires being exterminated by pest control. A new promo for the show indicates that the character Butters becomes frustrated by AI data centres opening near his house and consequently resorts to pest control to remove the billionaires behind them.

The teaser trailer for the forthcoming episode, which is the sixth of its 29th season, shows Butters speaking to a pest control worker about "billionaires in your backyard." The episode airs tonight, Wednesday 30 September, on Comedy Central in the US, with UK viewers able to watch it on Paramount+.

The show has previously targeted the Trump administration in recent seasons. The latest episode also touches on a growing distrust of AI, particularly within the entertainment industry.
