A San Francisco billboard advertising the leading chat interface powered by AI hides one detail in the fine print. The AI stands for Average Individual.

ChatTJB is a performance art project by Tucker Bryant, a conceptual artist and former Google employee.

He rented the SoMa billboard for $6,000 a month.

Bryant reads the messages himself and types back answers, sometimes for 10 hours a day, and draws requested images by hand.

After the billboard went up on July 27, traffic peaked at 5,000 prompts per hour, and the project logged over 30,000 queries by August 6.

Bryant says the goal is to make people pause before accepting chatbot answers at face value.

If you want real, local AI try AI Desktop 98.

Guy in my building pays for two reserved spots to protect his Lamborghini

I go back in forth between thinking this is hilariously stupid, or a depressing symbol of late stage capitalism.
