I look forward to more AI failures and flops and hope the public and financial backlash is intense for each every one of them. You cannot automate human creativity, and until the powers that be feel that in their wallets, we're going to be getting more and more of this inane drivel while actual, talented writers lose job opportunities.

The company has since promised to refund customers, but whether they'll all actually get their money back remains to be seen.

I'd be demanding it in full.

They didn't even proof read the promotional flyers to make sure they made sense. It's an absolutely absurd level of laziness.

You’re describing AI. We are in the get rich quick period of AI usage.

No, we're describing a human endeavour. If the promotional flyers had been made by outsourcing it to Fiverr and they came back wonky it would have been the same basic problem. They outsourced this and then ether didn't have the resources or interest in checking the work that came back.
