People care way too much about this.

Ads suck, in general. They're slop whether a human or an AI made it, and I don't want or care about them regardless.





So don't. But if mega corps want to juice our brains with their slop, to the degree that it's difficult to escape it, then we should also be able to sneer at the ads that miss the mark even more than usual.

You're foolishly giving them attention. Marketing teams know this.

If an ad is bad, it's better to ignore it and not write news articles about some marketing-fabricated controversy. Now you're thinking about McDonalds, which is what they wanted! They don't actually expect you to buy a burger tomorrow because of this.
