Looks to me like image generation has hit the chum link sites. Maybe a long time ago, but the first I’ve seen. Their ‘okay at a glance but weirdly off’ nature is going to be perfect for those ads.

I was going to say I had a hunch too many corp’ns deploy AI to save money (replace people) rather than to do things better or do new things of value. But it was only a hunch (possibly based on my experience of most large corp’ns).
