I watched a very long promo movie for [an AI browser.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C25g53PC5QQ)
At first I was afraid on what kind of new nightmares are they planning, but luckily it's nothing like that.
Yes, it's close to useless and takes too much energy, but nothing for me to be worried about.
What coughed my eye however was how they made the movie.
It's full of soft lighting, kind chat, drawing on paper.
It's a nice, comfy, warm scene.
It's everything the product is not.
Remember when oil companies bought ads to show them as the nice guys?
Now the most vile of technology is pretending to be this nice, older fella.
While creating the final straw in the tech bubble, they are pretending to use a _real_ video tape.
And while I get it (I also wouln't like to be connected to any of GenAI), it's fake.
It's as a fake as the grain we see in the movie.
It leaves me wondering, how much of this is good advertising, and how much is self-awareness.
The are the bad guys, but do they know it?
The third chapter of the movie tells how GenAI are still useless, so maybe they are starting to see the bigger context?
Guess it's time to start blocking not only AI Bots, but also AI browsers.
