Trump, 79, Shares Weird AI Video Shilling Magic Beds

a year ago by dude to c/news

The “medbed” that Trump promoted is a far-right conspiracy theory.

I read it as Weird Al instead of Weird AI.

Stupid fonts.

Yeah they really should use Ai. Big on artificial with little intelligence

What font makes a lower case L look like “L”? Oh wait, I see you want an I with serifs in a sans serif font.

There could be a slight difference in height or weight to distinguish the two while being sans serif.

I wanted to see a Weird Al video about medbeds but all they had was a Weird AI video about medbeds…

Isn't this the plot to Elysium?

Yes, except this story doesn't have amazing technological advancements that can build massive orbiting space stations or automated life saving medical tech .... this story just has an orange beanbag for a leader and AI that can make porn.

"Some companies have attempted to capitalize on the medbed conspiracy by promoting themselves as medbed-adjacent, though they stop short of selling the sci-fi pods envisioned by medbed believers. For example, Tesla BioHealing sells a “MedBed Generator,” which is a metal canister that patients place under their actual bed, for $11,000."

This reminds me of when I travelled on US airlines that had SkyMall catalogs and was laughing at the magnetic cures while all the Boomers around me were taking this very seriously.
