The Super Bowl broadcast is notorious for drawing a large contingent of non-football fans who watch for the commercials and the half-time show. Now, an Alberta liquor store is offering a trio of Super Bowl-themed six packs ahead of Sunday’s big game, including one targeted at the newest group of NFL fans.

It's a collection of already existing products not a product on it's own, and the image is an AI rendering. It's just a goofy promotion at a single liquor store, like when movie stores do like mystery movie nights and put movies in a brown sack and write something like "for Nicholas Cage lovers" on it. If it is illegal it sure doesn't seem worth enforcing.

You haven't met Disney's lawyers, I see.

I'm not sure what Disney has to do with T-Swift, but I assume she has some of the same lawyers.

Would you mind ai images of you used for commercial use without getting paid? These ads might be implying things about you that are false but make your loved ones worry.

Is that fine or an infringement on the right to your own image?

Oh, won't someone think of the billionaires?!

Fuck this billionaire as well a the rest of them. No one should have that much. Bunch of greedy fucks. She's already parroting Musky about the private jet.

No you fucking numpty, defending the unlicensed use of someones' image or the commercial use of AI art IS DEFENDING RICH PEOPLE, you fucking moron.

Who has access to the AI for commercial use? It's not you or me. It's the billionairs. If you defend not requiring licensing laws to be honored, that HELPS THE PEOPLE WHO CAN STEAL. Who can steal more if you make it legal? You, some numpty on a laptop typing prompts in to Bard? Or the corporations that fucking OWN Bard et. al.??

You are defending something that helps rich shysters, not defending some small shop.

Listen numpty... "Et al." is short for "et alia" which means "and other people". Bard isn't a person. It's a thing. You should have used "etc.", which is short for "et cetera", meaning "and other things".
