@arstechnica previous owners sucked the life out of the company, now the ad agency will literally suck the life out of their marketing.

@arstechnica Why would you name your AI product after a famously elusive marsh bird that sounds like a smoke detector low battery warning?

@arstechnica I enjoy how shortsighted this is. This nightmare generator of course needs tons of human help...and these companies are full of idiots if they think this is what new generations of people will want to train into. Literally, people will just drop out of and not enter creative fields to avoid doing the numb, soulless work of picking through and fixing what the machine vomits up. Companies will have fewer and fewer creatively skilled workers to do it, leaving them only with shit.

@arstechnica Vulture Capital continues to destroy Toys R Us, with a side of devaluing making commercials.
