    Right up there with the UI that shifts right when you’re going to tap/click on the thing you’re interested in and instead an ad or other feature is inserted and off you go.

      Nah, just get personal PR managers for the involved people, let the company fail and make sure to move on before that.

      The decision makes are exempt from consequences.

      Undefined term - “long term”. Management doesn’t know what that is.

    They don’t need AI for this.

    I recall that at least one website was having a transparent object follow the cursor around with a link to an ad in the invisible window. No matter where you clicked, ad.

    Why waste all the electricity on trying to predict it, when you can get the same effect by simply snapping the ad link right to the cursor in a transparent window.

      Don’t worry, that’s what the developer did. They just convinced their boss it’s AI to keep their job

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

  • The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author’s website, for instance).
  • The comic must be a complete story.
  • If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
  • You may post comics from others or your own.
  • If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
  • The comic can be in any language, but if it’s not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post’s ‘body’ field (note: you don’t need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
  • Politeness.
  • Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.
