"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

This ad was insultingly bad. It was bad AI and not funny?

Ugh what was that
I don't really understand how it's even an ad. It's for Dunkin I guess (which I just learned is not called Dunkin Donuts anymore for some reason), but they dunk-on their own employees by saying they'd be a disappointment if they work for Dunkin when they're 50. I didn't see any other labeling, is it maybe an ad for the AI company that did the de-aging? Ads exist to sell something, and I have no idea what was being sold. If anything, the only messaging I got out of it was that smart people can do better than working at Dunkin and they'd be a failure to do it for long.
It was an ad for '90s nostalgia I think.
Maybe AI wrote the script too...
That was the part that was most annoying to me. Even if an ad didn't have AI graphics it would have an unoriginal and chaotic AI script.
I found it funny. In a bizarre, Wtf kind of way, but funny nonetheless.
