dear God are there a lot of AI ads.  and not one of them communicates why I should care.

They're the worst!

The other day with the olympics I saw an ad. Had a super pregnant woman weight lifting, and then of course it was just another google AI ad.

I was too focused on the olympics aspect.

The AI phone ad right now is just so so so stupid, the one with the bird in the forest. The phone can't identify birds with its camera so they just show off that it can translate text. Who thought this would appeal to people!?



Maybe city people who have never been outside think this is what nature looks like, with plaques to identify animals everywhere.

Yeah,.. it was the plague just happening to be there that was really dumb.  If they wanted to make this ad work it should have at least taken place at a zoo. 


If AI is soo awesome and world changing  it shouldn't be soo hard to make an ad with a use case people would be excited about.

Shame that one of the american beach volleyball teams got eliminated today. It was fun seeing a "short" woman be one of the best players. 5 foot 6.
