"AI" has always been a marketing term meant to evoke the image of a scifi future. This is just an attempt at a rebrand.

America.gov launched today--a DOGE initiative to use AI to deliver public services. Child lying facedown on a frozen lake as the image accompanying the question: "How can I invest in my child's future" is just incredible. Way to go AI
Image of a child lying facedown on a froze lake.  above is the portal where you ask AI questions about government services.  the question matching this image is:  "How can I invest in my child's future?"

I don't know what the fuck to do about it all but I can't imagine for a second it involves subverting our imaginations and intellect to automated algorithms controlled by the worst cabal of Epstein class perverts and apcalypse fantasist cranks in the world.

When Culture Becomes “Content”
Can art still illuminate reality in an age of monetized attention, generative AI, and culture produced at limitless scale?

Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.
A crowded broadsheet with way too many fonts. It says:
Forget ChatGPT Flyers

Broadsheets
Unlimited fonts
Stretch them
Or cram a really long sentence into one line for no good reason
No whitespace
Mix capital and lowercase

My personal struggle is firmly believing ACAB but also I want to kiss fictional detectives on the mouth
Dick Gumshoe from Ace Attorney. There are three images of him in a trenchcoat with a loose tie. He has heavy eyebrows, a bandage on his chin, and is perfectly rectangular. This man was made in a lab to make me question my ethics. He's also very stupid.

Resident Evil movie comic
Bryan laughs constantly he lifts up a ladder and chucks it
It hits a zombie dog and he says “stupid dog”
Then he runs away continuing his laughing
He appears out the upper door of a barn, looks down to the far ground, realizing his mistake
