Before you see Ice Cream Man: - Eli Roth used AI when making the movie - he lied about it until he was called out for using an AI effects studio, then he said he “misspoke” about not using AI - he said Greta Thunberg “needs to be eaten by cannibals” for trying to deliver aid to Palestine No thanks

Hi there! Sorry I haven’t reached out sooner, it’s just that I am the only one who ever reaches out for anything, and I am extremely resentful about having to initiate this conversation. Hope you’re well!

Sorry, I will be unable to perform my stand-up set on your show, your appallingly ugly AI flyer made me start violently throwing up and the only cure is to get my face off of your flyer

I know things seem impossible to manage, the world growing darker by the second. But take heart, some things never change: you have new connections at Classmates dot com

I missed out on an opportunity that assigns projects on the basis of “hurry up and pick one of these pre-approved projects before our other freelancers claim them!” I must say I am not a fan of this “dying people scrambling for drops of water in Mad Max Fury Road” workflow

Love that I pay for insurance and none of the specialists who will accept my type insurance are taking new patients It’s as if all doctors are just like, screw this, let’s just golf

“I’d sworn off love after my wife died, but this woman was put together in all the right ways. Face, head, shoulders, knees and toes. Knees and toes… and a bottom that would make any toilet beg for the brown.” The movie came out a year ago, but imagining Liam Neeson saying it STILL DESTROYS me.

You guys, AI runs at such an incredible financial loss that the ONLY POSSIBLE ENDGAME is to sell or exploit your private data when the bubble pops. They want to own you more than they want your money.

The Odyssey portrays a very historically accurate dating app queue of 108 slimy men trying to match with one woman who doesn’t even want a profile

People love to cutely fetishize brain rot, but let’s be real. When the AI bubble bursts, millions of angry addicts are going to demand we welcome them back into our lives and they will treat us like submissive chatbots. It’s going to suck. Practice your boundaries, folks. We’ll need it.
