I think this one was especially bad because a massive corporation can't be arsed to do better. Like, Apple exaggerates a lot on their advertising, but at least there's some heart to it. (Coming from someone that doesn't like Apple.)
- danielbln 11mo agoUnless they do an ad where they literally crush creativity into a thin slab, an ad they had to later apologize for. Pepperage Farm remembers.
- ronsor 11mo agoPeople care way too much about this. Ads suck, in general. They're slop whether a human or an AI made it, and I don't want or care about them regardless.
- danielbln 11mo agoSo don't. But if mega corps want to juice our brains with their slop, to the degree that it's difficult to escape it, then we should also be able to sneer at the ads that miss the mark even more than usual.
- ronsor 11mo agoYou're foolishly giving them attention. Marketing teams know this. If an ad is bad, it's better to ignore it and not write news articles about some marketing-fabricated controversy. Now you're thinking about McDonalds, which is what they wanted! They don't actually expect you to buy a burger tomorrow because of this.
- port11 11mo agoYeah, that one must've looked super cool on paper. This McDo one can't have looked good anywhere but the price tag.
