I've only just realised that #OpenAI's logo is a stylised anal sphincter. Apologies for my childish but apposite observation so early in the morning.

Ah, ok. It seems I'm late to the game
(the gape?)

@Richard_Littler and it absolutely irritates me that for such a wealthy company the line thicknesses vary in the logo like it was done by a junior. Or a machine...

For a company actively seeking to remove knowledge skills from people, such a ambivalence to craft quality is on-brand

@markhobson I share this every time someone I know has this epiphany 😂
@markhobson @Richard_Littler yeah, thats it, thats the doc, thanks.

@markhobson @Richard_Littler The Brazilian Institute of Oriental Studies, omg lolol.

Reminds me of the 'Flaming Chalice' Unitarian Church logo which if you squint looks like a girl bending forward from a certain angle - sorry if you can't unsee it.

@markhobson @Richard_Littler
Mark, this article about Ai logos' remarkable common characteristic -- looking like buttholes -- is eminently rewarding of a thorough read.
Don't believe me?
Check out thus pulled quote:
"Maybe companies should have a panel of "middle schoolers" on their payroll to review logos before launch. They'll find every possible inappropriate interpretation with ruthless efficiency."

@markhobson @Richard_Littler I was just coming in to post that.
@Richard_Littler It's buttholes all the way down
@Richard_Littler I'd thought of it as a sucking vortex. I like yours better

@Richard_Littler Fun fact: most AI companies logo are.

I'm sure it's not a coincidence.

@Richard_Littler You know what would make that logo really sing? Hands either side making it more open. Go on, you know you want to...

@Richard_Littler I always thought it looked like a variegated nazi swastika. I am in fact more happy about your sphincter pov.
@morebento I'd say search it up, but you really don't want to
@Richard_Littler True. Apt logo for a stylized asshole. I hope the observation catches on. #FuckAI
@Richard_Littler not just open ai, most of generative ai startups.
