Proverb of the Day*: They’re serving #AIgenerated Açai Bowls in #LowerLonsdale now. This poster is announcing a rich, vibrant HUMAN social community “fun for the whole family” event (like the IG videos showed), but… Yo, mom and pop food shops! I can appreciate you want to save money on marketing, @bean_on5th, but… I’m not sure what this #AIgenerated #AIfood on the menu is support to represent? The #AIgenerated #AIfood desserts on restaurant menus and in advertising look 3D printed by an 👾 entity. If you look closely, #AIgenerated #AIfood on restaurant menus and in advertising is not only disturbing, it makes you want to gag. “PREAC Bro, can I just drive down the high street to do some chores without you #staring at me…?!?”
