AI-generated art (if you wanna call it that) is like Google Glass and the Metaverse. It’s not that most people don’t want it in their lives, they actually actively despise it. It’s a product that generates feelings of loathing rather than delight; dismay rather than joy.
I really thought, in the big build up to the announcement, it was gonna be a jetpack. I could never forgive the Segway for so bitterly disappointing me.
Very true, but also the reality was guys with more money than sense riding up the middle of a sidewalk like they'd bought the sidewalk, or flocks of tourists scattering sidewalk pedestrians like toddlers running through pigeons or sometimes blocking street traffic.
If Segway had gone with a small launch as a labor-saver for warehouse workers or something, probably would've been great. But it wasn't just billed as universe-changing, it was billed as universe-changing and then put to the most assholish applications possible.
Absolutely.
Its greatest application is for aiding warehouse picker with a secondary application of mall cop transport.
Too bulky for American sidewalks.
