KitKat ribs AI in hilarious new ad campaign
- allears 3y agoIt's like they asked ChatGPT to write a hilarious ad campaign.
- andsoitis 3y agoAI has not demonstrated self-deprecating humor yet; it takes itself too seriously.
- andrewstuart2 3y agoAs an AI language model, I am programmed to be positive and serious. If you need help with self-appreciating humor, feel free to ask!
- ickelbawd 3y agoThis is humorous, but also about on par for ads these days. This wasn’t possible a decade ago. I don’t doubt that some teams are going to get a lot smaller as this thing rolls forward.
- brushfoot 3y agoOptimistically, that will mean a higher number of small teams working on more products. Do we really need more products, though? Well, we don't need more throwaway trinkets. On the other hand, there are diseases to be cured, environmental problems to be solved, asteroids to mine, universal speech translators to implement....If those are "products," then more teams would be great. The hard thing as I see it is that the barriers to progress aren't mainly technical right now. They're social, political, tribal, and in some sense spiritual.
- s3p 3y agoDid you mean optimally? Maybe optimistically is a word too I just got confused while reading.
- sebastianconcpt 3y agoI am the only one that sees that noise being normalized is training organics neural networks with trash? AI improving exponentially its output while organics being trained with exponential noise? What could go wrong? We need to talk more about cultural noise/trash and weaponization of memes.
- barrysteve 3y agoAI has already trained people to enjoy looking at flat images with zero depth, perspective and spatial awareness. I would be more worried if this trend in human visual taste wasn't a repeat of 1k yrs ago. Illuminated manuscripts featured flatland-styling and architecture of the time was as bland as the cybertruck too. The real "danger" is people jumping on AI will make contemporary hand-made art like Star Wars appear high quality by comparison...
- graypegg 3y agoI’m sorry but what do you mean by “organics”? …humans? Something makes me deeply sad about that terminology.
- mynameisvlad 3y agoYeah, it’s a deeply unsettling and dehumanizing way to say it.
- mablopoule 3y agoSpoken like a true carbon-based lifeform.
- mcphage 3y agoWhat do you expect—they're made out of meat! Meat!
- dist-epoch 3y ago> I’m sorry but what do you mean by “organics”? You know, "meatbags", "carbons",
- bagacrap 3y agoDid anyone watch that video and think "hilarious"?
- crazyedgar 3y agoI think "creepy"
- drcongo 3y agoNo, it's terrible. And they've also missed a golden opportunity to riff on AI's problem with fingers.
- PartiallyTyped 3y agoFunny and irreverent? yes. Hilarious? No.
- neom 3y agoI thought this one was pretty good, hilarious no, but I liked it: https://www.instagram.com/p/CqAlhvHtoe1/ https://www.instagram.com/p/CqAlhvHtoe1/ Interesting to me that their IG posts usually get decent amounts of engagement but comparably, their AI ads failed miserably for engagement.
- andrewstuart2 3y agoBest $0.85 they ever spent.
