@ketan the most 2026 usa ad ever, hand them an award

@monocularvision @ketan but the narrative and framing make it clear he's doing this after having a neg reaction to peers calling a coworker's beautiful
what is that if not asking ai to replicate what got his peer praised?

@ketan @drahardja This is satire, right? This is not a real ad or is it?
@finestructure @ketan @drahardja AI ads are unironically this cringe. My (least) favourite one was by Apple in which a wife forgets her husband's birthday, gets passively upset at her children for remembering and getting gifts, then uses AI to "gift" her husband something like a collage or montage of photos from her phone, something that phones create automatically these days.

@ketan literally any other combination would've gotten the same response:
- roles reversed: showing whites as victims of "stealing work"
- monoracial (white): product promotes white supremacy
- monoracial (non-white): stereotyping X race as "plagiarisers"Maybe we tone down on the idpol when we really need some class solidarity, eh?

they even named him "kyle," is it satire or are they "honestly" this clueless

@ketan I really hope the ad agency meant to do this and Microsoft just didn't get it

@hi_cial @monocularvision

@loathsome_dongeater @ketan @drahardja Wow, that sounds terrible. That’s like a digital petrol station bouquet but with even less effort and therefore more of an insult.
