Spoiler; it was always soulless and dystopian.

Just when you thought marketing people were already the lowest scum among legal professions they sink even further.

It’s still iconic. It was always soulless.

It’s always has been.

Nah the part about “made by AI” is probably new.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

The ad is from the future, where AI becomes advanced enough to make it

It was sent back in time to warn us about AI, but the message probably was missed

Because people point out how bad the website is but refuse to post the video link for some reason: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHIxyGgSU90

wow I love it, it's so artificial, corporate, bland and full of dead smiles. Fantastically dystopian.

I honestly don't see a difference

That hand though

Wow. Yeah that's a shitty ad.

Folgers will always have the most wholesome ad.

lol ... this will be our future ... we will exist in a dystopian reality of climate catastrophes and a warming planet, creeping fascism, endless war ... while we will be steadily fed a diet of AI generated sentimental slop from our a recent past that no longer exists.

NPCs will get upset when somebody brings up that it is fake...

I hate the ad but I hate the website with the 100 ads even more OMG it took me 5 minutes to finally be able to click on youtube fast enough before getting ported to the top screen without being able to move.

Watching it, even if I didn't know ahead of time it was AI, the stuff with Santa giving the guy the Coke looked so unnatural that I would have to assume it was, at the very least, badly-done CG.

It is 5 second scenes with jump cuts. If you pause any particular scene the AI shows itself really fast. (The fast jumps are a good cover though)

Ads are shit. AI ad is also shit.
So surprising.
