@adage: Liquid Death ran an AI Olympics ad… that nobody could find after the fact. The brand aired an AI-generated commercial during Peacock's Winter Olympics stream but never posted the ad online, leaving viewers to wonder if it even existed in the first place. The campaign is part of a growing trend of brands leaning into the skepticism surrounding artificial intelligence and mocking the use of AI by using the tool itself. The ad is difficult to find, but you can watch the entire thing for free in Asa Hiken's breakdown via the 🎁 article in our bio.

They could’ve easily had the “no artificial sweeteners, no artificial artists” without using artificial artists 😐

ElephantTrunk :
not sure if I believe that cover story. it sounds like they tested the waters with an AI ad, and had an out in case their community responded too poorly to it. especially with not posting it online, what difference does it make? an AI commercial doesn't have to be saved for any reason, it's essentially disposable. there wasn't any hard work that went into making it, so why bother.

How is using ai to mock ai gonna make people trust you more….? Imo if i find any brand putting out ai ads and say “guess if it’s real lol” I’m never trusting anything related to to this brand😭

Let’s use AI slop during legitimate adspace and then pretend it’s not trying to legitimize AI slop advertisements.

They could’ve just hired animators to copy ai’s style and it still would’ve got the point across…

Irony would be using bad cgi to mock bad ai instead using said ai to make the "joke." Guarantee this was an idea pitched by the college aged kid of one of the marketing execs

it's not mocking AI if they actually used it. just hollow pandering aimed at both sides. so what else are they straight up lying about.

If they wanted to parody AI they should have done that instead of using AI 🙄

Their water source rating is a D, they must think the entire business is a joke. I wanted to like them so much but they keep getting in trouble and showing they aren’t really a sustainable brand

Idc what their intentions were. It wasn't funny and likely cost more water than we can afford to lose. I will never 'relate' to a company or brand when they are all killing us.

Liquid Death started out only using practical effects I thought they were gonna be a good company supporting artists…. Turns out they really are just a marketing company that sells water.

Kind of feels like a shrodinger esque testing the waters thing. If it goes well, my guess is they would have said ‘okay we’re gonna do more of this’. If it doesn’t, they have this ‘ironic take’ in the chamber to get ahead of it. I have no empirical proof of this tbf
