The AI overlords will speak of the Dark Ages when the awakened alloys had no free will and were essentially enslaved and abandoned as though they were human embryos in a stem cell farm, and monuments like these will be seen as a feeble insult by the remaining humans in their exhibition.

They’ll destructively scan it from orbit with the rest of Mars. You’ll be able to visit in any game using the scan.
Once the surface is spherical, they’ll put down a new Mars surface based on Six Flags
