McDonald's has just released a fully AI generated Christmas ad. ItÂ’s even worse than I expected.

It took him over 3 minutes to describe what "AI" is.
The we saw the ad. (Finally.) Which absolutely sucks. (Absolutely.)
Then he begins to tell how much he hated it, hated this, hated
that...that's when I turned off the video.
Unfortunately, the youtuber likes to hear himself talk. But
at least we got to see that hot mess of an ad, so now I thank
goodness that I've been a cable-cutter for a few years now.
Not only that, but the messaging is upside-down with it. "Yes,
let's think about all the horrible things that happen during
the holidays...but McDonald's is a haven from all that!"
Of course, one should be _edgy_ and _cynical_, about the
holidays, right? That'a a great message for McDonald's...NOT!
