Comment on McDonald's removes AI-generated ad after backlash

Comments

I can sympathize but the comment that “This commercial single-handedly ruined my Christmas spirit” is insane to me. Who cares so much about advertisements lol.

I owe my life and my diabetes to this corporation. It is extremely important to me that it reflects my values and prejudices.

People on social media are not known for being so even keeled and nuanced

Like it or not advertisement shapes the world in a lot of ways. I still remember ads from back when I was a kid about eating clean, not littering, &c.

It is, or used to be at least, one of the most creative visual industry too, because of relatively big budgets, short duration, fast release cycles.

At this point, seeing any advertisement ruins my mood.

I think it is humorous exaggeration

The outrage is the AD
