I dunno, due to certain current events, I'm not sure advertising as the most soulless shitbag corporation is really the winning play.

Artisan CEO Jaspar Carmichael-Jack defended the campaign's messaging in an interview with SFGate. "They are somewhat dystopian, but so is AI," he told the outlet in a text message.

Does... Does he know what dystopian means? I don't think you want to market your product as such, Jaspar.

So what does Artisan actually do? Its main product is an AI "sales agent" called Ava that supposedly automates the work of finding and messaging potential customers. The company claims it works with "no human input" and costs 96% less than hiring a human for the same role. Although, given the current state of AI technology, it's prudent to be skeptical of these claims.

Ah, yes, the first impression I want to give a potential customer is that I am too cheap to actually have a human even spend a second on them.

Hilarious. Better pic would have been to have a tent city behind the billboard.
