If anybody is wondering this advert is real, it’s running in San Francisco.
The company is called Artisan. If you google them, all the reviews are horrible and suggest they are a scam company.
@GossiTheDog yes, but also is it possible to scam VCs? Moving their money from their mitts is always good.
Let them fight, etc
I have a cookie I'd share.
Ah, SF . . .
More context, if folk are curious:

This is, of course, the promise of much of the AI hype. Hugely over-promising, IMO, in a lot of arenas.
@GossiTheDog I’m fairly sure that’s less of an ad and more of a threat.
(And also a scam, ofc.)
@GossiTheDog alt text -
Photo of a San Francisco street with an avertisement for an AI company named "Artisan". It reads "Artisans dont complain about work-life balance. The era of AI employees is here". An unhomed person is sitting on the curb next to the sign.
@GossiTheDog Sickening Irony.
Artisan literally by definition means, "a worker in a skilled trade, especially one that involves making things by hand.
"street markets where local artisans display handwoven textiles, painted ceramics, and leather goods"
where can I transfer to the NonAIverse?
Just checked their website they claim to automate sales and marketing with AI. It does beg the question what happens when AI sells to AI?
Truly conjures that dystopian vision of factories still producing stuff and drones still delivering stuff on a dead planet absent of humans.
