The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot
A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead:
It is truly tragic that we have reached the point where we see something like this, and we can't tell if its parody or Microsoft just taking the mask completely off.

@ketan Yes, Copilot sucks, but where in the ad does he ask it to copy his coworker's work? All I saw was a vague "make mine beautiful".

You've just opened up an eloquent description of AI and its users as
*wanker clankers* and *clanker wankers*
“Wanker clankers
and clanker wankers 🧍
️” is not the kind of ‘bad romance’ that Lady Gaga referred to here: https://youtu.be/qrO4YZeyl0IIt’s more like the prophetic photo that perfectly symbolizes the deadly nexus of #Trump and #Musk (or #Corruption and #BigTech more broadly).

@drahardja Yeah, Apple Intelligence ads were exactly like that too. "Oops I forgot to read the presentation my colleagues put effort into, I'll ask my Mac to extract three key points to pretend I've read it, I'm such a good person"
@trikuxabi @drahardja Also Claude, "your UNFAIR advantadge"

@ketan@climatejustice.social Literally advertising to narcissism and normalizing it in the process.

OMFG I am working in Product Management and Marketing I can not fathom how someone signed this off, not seeing the obvious. Like no, you should go to Kyle and simply ask him to teach instead of sterling how work... WTF 🫣

@ketan GFY with your racism... White, black, what a odd way to see the world mate. Stop with this non sensical means of control sh... Why this BS in here ? Stop weaponising melanin.
@JeanZerian @ketan (*fart noise*)

@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?

@ketan It’s so revealing that every office-work AI ad seems to endorse the worst asshole behavior in people. Utter neglect, then taking credit for someone else’s work, then bullshitting your way through, all while not caring about the work product, all for the grand goal of making an extra dollar or winning corporate praise…just the worst aspects of humanity.
@drahardja @ketan They know their target audience.

@ketan
This ad openly sells slop as a tool for the maintenance of white supremacy@ophiocephalic @ketan That's what it's designed to do, and what they are selling.
-
@ketan @drahardja This is satire, right? This is not a real ad or is it?
@finestructure @ketan @drahardja Poe's Law. As things become more extreme, they become indistinguishable from their own parody.

Other than also being nicely stuble racist on top, this reminds of a horrific “Cloud versus Claude” ads from back when Cloud was the current AI-hype thing: It basically compared a guy named Cloude manually cutting physical with using a photo editor... Except the photo editor was a M$ cloud service, so it was like “innovative”, you know.This is the same level of stupid, I’m so glad I militantly avoid ads nowadays. Getting some nice subtle racist reinforcement is just the tip of the ice berg really.
