It's so funny because it would be totally trivial to fix the back of the computer, you don't even need an artist for it. Making the left hand look nicer isn't even necessary but would take an actual artist only a few minutes to do. Those are the only real issues in the entire thing (the keyboard doesn't matter), but no they just refuse to pay people.

Yup.

  1. They sell these tools by saying they'll make the jobs of graphic designers/artists (and others) easier,

  2. realise they're now paying for that worker AND an AI subscription and fire the former because neoliberal business economics is terminally short-sighted,

  3. they realise that quality has plummetted for a marginal increase in productivity at best.

  4. Quietly reopen the job post and maybe save some money by offering a shittier salary

All worth it to them if workers are too spooked to get ideas
