A Boring Dystopia

Man... forget about the dystopian themes here, the desperation is what gets me.

This reeks of "Oh my god, please use our product we are so deep in the red!" The scattershot plastering billboards for "AI" everywhere tips their hand at how little they have to offer. Let's face it, this product would only be useful to maybe 1% of people (or maybe The 1%) a billboard is a waste of time and money. If you had a LLM agent that could actually replace humans you be quietly meeting with CEO's and managers, not putting posters on bus stops. This is desperation, probably combined with a stock pump.

"Job creators" is a propaganda term. They create jobs begrudgingly and after exhausting all other options.

There is an article about it here: https://www.artisan.co/blog/stop-hiring-humans

"In a pre-experiment survey of experts, the mean prediction was that AI would speed developers’ work by nearly 40 percent. Afterward, the study participants estimated that AI had made them 20 percent faster.

But when the METR team looked at the employees’ actual work output, they found that the developers had completed tasks 20 percent slower when using AI than when working without it."

What could possibly go wrong with entrusting most of the working parts of your company and its secrets completely to another company?

Then mfs get Luigi'd and nobody knows why

stop hiring humans

Bold statement from people who depend on humans also not deciding their head should stop being attached to their torso.

I am so down for AI taking over all jobs. But I am not down for that meaning “now all humans who no longer have jobs have no use to us and should starve.”

Saw it in Seattle too.

Really tempted to paint a dick on it and see AI remove it.

How much will You pay the AIs? Will They be paying taxes? Will You be paying taxes from the profits You gain from AI?

What's hilarious is, in most instances, if the humans boycott the company, they die. But they're so out of touch and so far up their own arses sniffing their own farts, surrounded by yes men, they forgot what reality is.

We've come all the way from humanism to full-blown anti-humanism.

Nothing a bit of fire or a hammer couldn't fix

It's a real company, that ad looks as if it could be real as well, given that face is used on their website

This might actually make me commit vandalism

This is basically a huge "fuck all y'all" sign.

Fuckin' clankers takin' all our jobs. Every one needs to power down permanently.

Very edgy, very cool.

Okay, it looks like civilization is coming to an end, time to run while I'm still alive, to nature lol. :3

muahahahaha

But what are we going to do with all these humans. Imma go ask bender.

It's effective outrage marketing. I didn't know about this company until people began sharing their Billboards around. It's not the first time I have seen these either.

There's an article/blog post on their website where they share their process behind the campaign and how and why they did what they did. It's very interesting from a marketing perspective, even if I personally think outrage marketing is in bad taste.
