    The cat and the tree is janky as fuck (it would start off slower and gain speed). The mixer exploding looks like nothing real, and produced a gigantic splat that only went on the guy’s face, not his jumper, and he reacts before it does so (whilst the woman doesn’t react at all). The exploding tree looked like nothing again, then the snow fell off him weirdly as he slid to a stop. When the tree lights break, the old man reacts with a horror-show unchanging wide-open mouth before anything happens, then the sparks appear before the illumination on the presents does. The falling man’s limbs all turn to jelly after he does so. The couple eating appear in front of the rain-streaked window.

      Yeah but who the fuck cares, it’s a stupid commercial? I guarantee that no one outside of the “I hate AI“ crowd noticed anything. In fact, I don’t think anybody noticed the commercial even if they stared right at it.

        I’m sure it’s mostly anti ai backlash, but people do still care about the quality of things they see even if they’re adverts.

                I can only remember one McDonald’s ad which featured some kind of burger-UFO. That was pretty funny.

                They’re all soulless and horrible, but the uncanny valley jank-fest is unsettling in a way that’s worse.

                  They’re all crap. They’re ads. Would you prefer static images of various restaurant locations set to royalty free music?

                    I’m sorry you didn’t like my opinion.

                    Not sure what your proposal is supposed to say given that I have an example of what I would prefer, and that you seem to be saying that all ads are equally bad.
