One of the more disturbing
and disruptive aspects of AI
is how much advertisers have used it
almost as a fake mirror, to imitate
human behaviour and likenesses.
In one sense I can't blame them,
after all if you have goods to sell
then you will find the shortest cut
to sell them with. I am in no way a salesman.
Most people would say that I'm lazy,
but it takes lazy person to recognise hard work.
I do wonder whether we would be
more creative if advertising took
to selling what is honestly more alien
rather than selling us imitation homeliness.
How much more creative would we be?
