I don’t even know what it’s called, but I really hope it goes the way of Comic Sans

Edit: does anyone actually know what this awful font is called?

I have a lot to say about how and why, but i think these people though their posters looked good before they saw everyone have the same style.

Like how Walmart and Target are competitors, but their themes complement each other as to what we expect from their stores. It's something a successful business can't ignore. See power tools brands have all cornered their respective color theme, but up close they all perform similar to our expectations before anything else.

So AI steps in, advertised it can make posters now, and people believe it. Either they can't afford an artist, or don't care enough to consider. Swaths of salt-of-earth businesses jump to use it, naively, and kinda out themselves accidentally as the amateurs they are.

Everyone sees it, and realized too late. I think that style will die off pretty quickly if business owners know what's good for them.

It's just so absurd that AI as a solution is just again, seen as another poison to the thing it's supposed to solve. If I were to write a story about it, I couldn't make it up. The absurdity has it's own gravitational pull.
