Alt Text: A comic in four panels:

Panel 1. The Gothic Sorceress sits alone at the university of magic's cafeteria, without her Avian Intelligence (AI) Parrot. However, something feels off: she's surrounded by Avian Intelligence ads everywhere, big posters and marketing object "AI Next", "Go AI", "Join AI", "AI Win", "Use AI", "AI Now" etc... and many users around with their AI Parrots. She thinks out loud.

Gothic Sorceress: Ugh, can't escape it.

Panel 2. She runs down a staircase filled with the same AI ads everywhere, even large statues of parrots are here.

Gothic Sorceress: sighs Everywhere...

Panel 3. In a corridor with still many ads, she runs and push the door of the toilets.

Gothic Girl: Get me out! Somewhere, anywhere!

Panel 4. She sits on the toilet, looking exasperated, still fully dressed. The toilet paper, wall poster, and even the wallpaper all feature the same AI ads.

Gothic Girl: Seriously?... Even here?...

You can tell its real art by a few details

  • the tile lines all line up.
  • the statues on the staircase match and are in line.
  • the banner the statues are holding actually look attached and are lined up.
  • the chairs all have the right number of legs.
  • the parrot mascot/ad posters all match between the panels.
  • the text is coherent.
  • the lady's face and outfit match between panels, even the spiky bottom part of the dress.

The only questionable thing is the background patron's feet on the first panel, but maybe the artist just sucks at drawing feet.

This is an ongoing series is set to mock AI, it is purposefully made to resemble some of the generic over the top blurry filter AI is has become known for.
