That is funny. My father worked Environmental Health & Safety, cleaning up lab accidents after clumsy undergrads and absent-minded professors. He brought home pagers, Geiger counters, film badges, UV lamps. OSHA was his nemesis, being even more strict sticklers that supervised his office's operations.
We had an extraordinarily safe home, even with my dad's utterly safe turpentine and chemical experiments in the garage, and so I took up B&W Photography in college. One whiff of that darkroom, and I knew I was in my element!
If you catch yourself thinking this is cool/impressive, just mentally append "so buy our product!" to any pithy little marketing drivel you read to help ground yourself in reality.
Fantastic campaign. The "Go jump in some water before the data centres drink it all up" billboard on the beach doesn't mince words ... ( https://www.businessinsider.com/polaroid-anti-ai-data-center... ).

I want to like the message but it just leaves a bad taste.
That's a smart commercial indeed! I would like to see more commercial like these.
Really cool. I believe they did this in 2025. I remember seeing this last year :-)
pretty sad when toxic chemical filled plastic takes the moral high ground
Wait until you hear about the environmental impact of chip foundries...

Buying products is our reality.
I'd take this over shitty AI every single day.
