    That was such a tone death commercial from apple. There are many ways to have the same message without crushing angry bird.
    Heck essentially running that ad in reverse having those tools coming out of the ipad does the same thing.

      At least partially it’s about material costs. If one can make the same thing but use half the necessary material to do it, the profit margin goes up. Depending on context it can also be referred to as light-weighting, reducing how much it contributes to weight-sensitive loads. If they can generate hype about reducing the amount of “stuff” involved making it “new,” then that distracts from the “Why don’t you make it correspondingly cheaper?” question.
      Partially it’s going to be cashing in on something developed for another purpose. “We figured out how to do this for item W, can we apply that to Y and Z as well?”
      Partially bragging rights, thinnest strongest fastest whateverest. I’m sure there are other factors as well.

    People would probably have given it a pass, if it wasn't for:
    1. The fact that Apple has already used this approach before, so it feels like old news;
    2. Particularly AI. Because it feels much less like stuffing all those things inside a tablet, and more like we're replacing all of those things with crappy AI generated content.

    • @flackstar007
      @flackstar007 12 днів тому +1

      I personally find it diminishes the feeling of accomplishment in multiple ways, when AI goes hand in hand mass production and commercialism.
      Two of the ways is as follows.
      When someones creative output is mass produced in one form or another its tough fr some to see how their creative output was unique and this can lead to a potential silencing of future efforts which would improve as the person goes doing the creative journey.
      Then when Ai is designed to take all existing creative works and use it as a means of mass producing similar works but with way less effort, the people who just spent hours creating something that could be done in seconds by a machine then have the challenge of staying motivated to create new content as well as the challenge of finding places that would promote their content. This will likely become much harder as AI gains access to more raw input data to further increase the amount of mass produced content it can churn out at any given moment and will result of a severe diminishing of value towards current content creators.
      I know people drive much of the content market and it would be easy for people to choose content created by people, but this may also be misleading as even now it's starting to become harder for people to tell the difference between content created by hand and content created with AI tools.

    Did Ai come up with the idea for that new iPad ad? The destruction of human instruments of creativity to produce a piece of tech that can replace it all, and the sense most human beings get when watching it, is the uncomfortable truth that we are headed in the direction where the creator (humans) will eventually be on that proverbial press one day soon being just as easily replaced. And perhaps one day, Ai will be creating an ad for the first iPad designed exclusively for sentient androids using a similar type of ad showing humanity being crushed down to create tech for the machines that replaced us.

The brain rot of some people is amazing. I wouldn't wonder if you are one of those weirdos who camp at Apple store days or weeks before a product release, just to be the first to buy a new iPad, because you are mentally weak and can't control your FOMO, being a good consoomer buying overpriced rehashed garbage.
      Apple can't even bother doing it with CG and give more work for artists.
