My daughter sent me this & yes to all of it - I hadn't even thought of the fonts thing, but it's totally on point, too; there's a reason font design is a major speciality skill, you don't just pull something like that out of your ass.

@jwcph It's just WordArt all over again, isn't it. Even the target audience matches.

@jwcph As a professional graphic designer, I wish they had spent more than 20 minutes on it, but I support the message.

@jwcph@helvede.net quick tip: @inkscape@mastodon.art is a fab tool for poster design, and even accepts raster images from e.g. unsplash which you could use as a background/border/etc as part of your design. Personally, aside form the wild level of intuitive control you can get the grid function is so useful for designing posters and stuff and getting everything aligned
disclaimer I'm definitely not a pro or anything designing stuff, I've just self-taught.....

@danimo I was gonna say - that's a pretty horrible design! Especially the headline font... yechhh.

@jwcph@helvede.net I disagree on the chosen font for the heading. But the rest is good.

@eragon You can disagree with the design decisions - but the point is that decisions were made. You can't disagree with an algorithm, because there's no intent or decisions to disagree with.

@pythno There is no font. The AI just makes up pixels that look like letters.

@jwcph And most "business people" will say "I don't have 20 minutes to waste!" just to immediately waste an entire hour trying to correct the poster by just throwing slightly different prompts to copilot or whatever AI their company allows them to use.
What a world we live in...

@ttydweller @jwcph My favorite LARP genre is when business people cosplay having important things to do.
