Blog Post #3

Recently AI has become a huge part of social media, ads, and in marketing for a lot of companies. One time recently that I encountered AI was on instagram in ads related to pet care products. The ad was using AI cats and humans to endorse their product as really well liked by cats and their owners alike and depicted an overly affectionate cat and happy humans. This at first drew my interest quickly but after looking at it harder it made me slightly annoyed and irritated. The people and the cat were too perfect, it was obviously fake. Although I can’t specifically remember the exact product they were selling, I was not inclined to buy it because it felt like if the ad was fake how is the product any better for my animal. I think to do better even if using AI the company would need to make things are realistic and not fairy tail like to get me to purchase next time.
