Just got this in the parent app, Ive truly become unhinged in that I responded immediately to the post: Ai really? Slop.

I cant take it anymore. A lady at the checkout of my dr appointment yesterday had a large poster, ehem, large ai poster of herself as a queen with text on it like “phone queen” and it was so hard to stand there and not say anything.

Imma get introuble at my son’s school this year, I can tell. Fuck Camino Alto, Fuck ai.

    This has the opposite effect in my opinion.

    I get that as a tool, AI isn’t worse than somebody using WordArt and comic sans for everything. However the result is actually worse.

    It doesn’t look nice. It looks soo generic that it sends the message that nobody spend a second giving a flying fuck about what it looked like. They might as well have typed it on a blank page using Times New Roman.

    I’m not going to spend my time even looking at it or let alone read it to get any info from it, because I can tell from a glance they didn’t care about putting it there in the first place.

    I stop listening to the radio or walk away from the TV when the commercial break starts. I put my phone away when it plays unskippable ads. This flyer has the same effect on me as a billboard at the busstop that I also don’t look at.

    So it could be argued that maybe I’m just not the target demographic for this flyer. But I am. And this flyer is not advertising. Yet it’s presented in the way a computer has decided would be appealing to humans or some shit. And it just fails completely, while also screwing up the purpose of communication.
