[–] thisislife2 2mo ago ↗ Fantastic campaign. The "Go jump in some water before the data centres drink it all up" billboard on the beach doesn't mince words ... ( https://www.businessinsider.com/polaroid-anti-ai-data-center... ).

[–] asp_hornet 2mo ago ↗ “Company pleads that we’re analogue creatures and should pay them $1 a photo to save our souls.”I want to like the message but it just leaves a bad taste.
[–] annagio_ 2mo ago ↗ That's a smart commercial indeed! I would like to see more commercial like these.
[–] deepfriedchokes 2mo ago ↗ Props to their marketing team. Here we are talking about it just like they wanted.
