I watch these "interesting cooking" videos on YouTube and I’ve got to wonder if they’re legit or not.
Like, we all got fooled before by those like Tasty Food videos that had people wasting massive amounts of food for no fucking reason.
You can say your shit is fake as fuck.
Nobody gives a shit.
I will still watch stuff I know is fake because it’s fascinating and enjoyable to watch.
But I want to KNOW that it’s fucking fake.
Stop making fake videos that LOOK like people can really do that and putting them in the "real life people can do this in real life" video section.
You’re fake as fuck. Be open about it. There is a niche for your product. Stick to that niche.
Fucking clothing brands using AI "versions" of their clothing to show the buyer what it will look like.
Stop that shit.
- Get a mannequin or set of mannequins in the sizes you’re selling.
- Put the clothing item(s) you’re selling on the mannequin.
- Take some pictures.
- Photoshop a head on the mannequin if you want to.
- Bam. Marketing copy.
I want to see how the top hangs. How the waist sits. Are the openings flared?!?
Like, you’re minding you’re business and you wave your hand… and your whole sleeve kind of flops over itself. Or you roll the sleeve up and the material is so sheer and the flare so wide that the sleeve comes flopping back down in your way, usually when your hands are busy and you can’t roll it back up.
Seriously: People die from floppy sleeves.
Machinery can pull you right in.
That’s why I always thought the future was going to be robots controlled by human operators. // And seriously, I would prefer a cubicle or a personal space to work in rather than stood up with a group of others wearing VR goggles and powergloves.
There’s a lack of respect in forcing the employees to be on display like that.
What if you have a bathroom emergency while you’re standing there in a room full of other people where people will cut through the periphery to reach the cafeteria or something.
Every single movie, showing people standing in lines and rows in a big room. And the boss of the main character is happily showing them all of the amenities.
What the fuck, man?
I would assume that employees should be assured some amount of privacy. Especially if they’re operating robot bodies that are doing really attention-focused stuff.
That anyone can walk through that office and see them like that… It would make working there uncomfortable.
- You’re basically doing a workout, so optimally you’d be wearing workout clothes.
- You can’t wear makeup with the VR goggles. Not without wearing some kind of mask, maybe one that’s made so only your eyes are exposed to see. (Less radiation exposure directly on your face.)
- You’d want to wear shoes made for standing.
- Maybe you’d want a table to hold a bottle of water and maybe some refreshing mints to suck on.
Basically, I think most people would prefer not to be shown like that to the world. Better closed off in a room where the workers can choose whether they want the curtains open or not.
Maybe once and a while for prearranged photo ops, but otherwise people would choose not to be on display all the time. It’s exhausting.
Anyways, I watch cooking videos on YouTube. And there’s a set of videos that are seemingly easy to do, but I don’t know if the results will be as advertised. There’s a few seemingly questionable steps that make me have to wonder.
