Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.
A crowded broadsheet with way too many fonts. It says:
Forget ChatGPT Flyers
Say it with 
Broadsheets
Unlimited fonts
Stretch them
Or cram a really long sentence into one line for no good reason
No whitespace
Mix capital and lowercase
Pointing hands
(They're called manicules!)
Don't be left behind
Broadsheets are the future

Calling it a word-guessing program is not dismissal. Now, when I call it a ramped-up autocomplete, that's me being dismissive, because "I don't think I've achieved a quite a bit of a philosophy nerd", to quote my own phone's autocomplete.

It's easy to do this when they don't control Congress and the White House. I'll be genuinely waiting to see this legislation re-introduced in 2029, and I mean that. There are times I love being wrong, and this would be one of them.

An AI flyer is a brown M&M test. If your event or business is cutting corners by using an AI flyer, where else are you cutting corners? What else are you cheating out on? Why should I be bothered to go somewhere you couldn't be bothered to promote with a little of your own personality?

I can't imagine the Tetris rightsholders are a larger company than Hasbro, but just the threat of a lawsuit from them was enough to get the White House to take down their racist Tetris clone. If you won't even threaten to sue the fuckers when you more than have the ability, you grant permission.
Image from Hasbro's Instagram: Optimus Prime is a beloved character who represents humility, leadership, compassion and justice. Hasbro is aware of the recent posts using his likeness.

This is set up for laughs, but it’s actually one of the best demonstrations I’ve seen of how being capable of producing convincing sounding language and understanding meaning are two completely different things. A chatbot does not understand you, it just has automated responses based on your words.
