Why do people keep falling for this?

Oh idk, because the exact same phenomenon is real when it comes to hotwheels cars? People keep "falling for this" because it's believable. I don't know what to tell you guys, but there's really nothing about that picture that screams "FAKE! AI AI AI!!!"

Like this?

Enshittification is real. Which makes it extra infuriating when people fake it.

Yes, that's exactly what I'm talking about. Again, I am not defending the AI, but I think it's pretty dumb to ask "why do people fall for this" when I can so easily bring up another example of the exact same phenomenon that is real.

Be mad at whoever made it, but there's no need to be shitty to people who fall for it when it's pretty mundane and believable like this post is.
