Polaroid just dropped the most iconic anti-AI ad of the year
- annagio_ 3mo agoThat's a smart commercial indeed! I would like to see more commercial like these.
- thisislife2 3mo agoFantastic campaign. The "Go jump in some water before the data centres drink it all up" billboard on the beach doesn't mince words ...

- ButlerianJihad 3mo agoThat is funny. My father worked Environmental Health & Safety, cleaning up lab accidents after clumsy undergrads and absent-minded professors. He brought home pagers, Geiger counters, film badges, UV lamps. OSHA was his nemesis, being even more strict sticklers that supervised his office's operations. We had an extraordinarily safe home, even with my dad's utterly safe turpentine and chemical experiments in the garage, and so I took up B&W Photography in college. One whiff of that darkroom, and I knew I was in my element!

- micromacrofoot 3mo agoI'm not saying it's better, just pointing out that it's a problem capitalizing on another problem and there's no real virtue here... only advertising, let's stop getting tricked by advertising
- 000ooo000 3mo agoIf you catch yourself thinking this is cool/impressive, just mentally append "so buy our product!" to any pithy little marketing drivel you read to help ground yourself in reality.
- bruki 3mo agoBuying products is our reality. I'd take this over shitty AI every single day.
- asp_hornet 3mo ago“Company pleads that we’re analogue creatures and should pay them $1 a photo to save our souls.” I want to like the message but it just leaves a bad taste.
