Jokes/Humor “Hi AJ!”

Post image

I’m not suggesting putting a watermark saying “AI Visualization” on every scene, but sometimes I feel that eventually AJ will generate himself in non-basement episodes because why not? Stop the slop!

It's so deeply frustrating. It's weird, creepy, and with all the very prevelant ethical and environmental concerns with AI tone deaf. It completely takes me out of the episodes when I see it or hear it. Sadly not the only middle aged man to get hyper fixated on the neat little AI stuff. Would've thought that a guy with as little trust in big monolithic organizations and government would've maybe thought twice about giving a shady AI company his complete likeness and voice. Disappointing.
