At least in this case I can't pretend I have some kind of super power since I knew beforehand that it was gen AI. And also it's not like I'm saying I love all the man-made posters. Or that I never been "fooled" by g

I know that the current state of affairs with the AI labs bros can make the old antivirus villains look like lambs; still, I don't see how anyone would like to have anything to do with those guys.
